Navaids — The SporTrak Color now contains a comprehensive list of navaids to sup- port the many mariners who are using the SporTrak Color receiver. Tides and Currents — The SporTrak Color can now display tide and current infor- mation for various ports and stations. All nine function buttons, including an eight-way rocker panel, are located below the screen and are also backlit for easy viewing at night. Although the model comes with 32MB of internal memory, 10MB is used by the built-in mapping database, leaving just 22MB for storing waypoints, routes, and additional detailed navigational data.

However, that amount is sufficient for detailed maps of the New York tristate area or the whole of central California, covering a rectangular area fenced by San Francisco, Yosemite, and Fresno.

The barometer provides atmospheric pressure readings and is ideal for extended hiking excursions. The three-axis compass is easy to calibrate and is accurate regardless of the angle at which you are holding the unit. The device's built-in maps include major roadways, parks, waterways, and airport locations, as well as nautical navigational aids such as buoys and lighted beacons.

Unfortunately, the SporTrak's memory is not expandable, and the unit does not have an SD Secure Digital slot, so you'll have to choose your detailed maps wisely. Loading street-level maps of the New York tristate area took more than 30 minutes via the included nine-pin serial cable and consumed almost 16MB of memory; if you're planning a long-range trip, you'll have to bring along a laptop to replace detailed maps as you go.
