Foretrex 201
The
Foretrex 201 is a wrist GPS navigator, perfect for outdoor
and marine enthusiasts who desire hands-free GPS navigation in
a lightweight package.
At
2.75 ounces, the waterproof Foretrex 201 is lighter than most
watches, and its wrist-top mount frees up hands for outdoor activities.
The Foretrex 201 includes the GPS navigation features of the Geko
201 unit. Its six dedicated buttons (GoTo, Page, Enter/Mark,
Up, Down and Power) make it easy to operate. It offers the most
essential navigation data - enhanced GPS accuracy, extensive storage
for waypoints, and reversible routes and tracks - on an easy-to-read
display.
The
Foretrex 201 runs on an internal lithium battery for 15 hours (typical use). Simply
recharge and go. The Foretrex 201 also comes equipped with special features sure
to please mariners and hikers alike. It includes a unique application for sailing
and paragliding racers that allows them to configure the start sequence of a race.
The countdown is displayed in a large-number format that audibly alerts the user
at each phase of the start sequence. With the help of Garmin's TracBackŪ technology,
hikers can mark a campsite, go trekking all day, and follow the electronic "breadcrumb
trail" back to camp in time for dinner.
