Marine navigation and electronics are better than ever—and they keep advancing. With options ranging from practical—like GPS navigation systems and advanced boat instrumentation to satellite-based entertainment such as TV and radio, choosing can be daunting, even for experienced boaters. The upside is that there are excellent choices at every price point: the trick to making the right choice is in determining what features you really need and will use. Consider your boat, your budget and the type of boating you do; all will help you narrow down your options and choose gear that will meet your needs over the long haul.

Large-scale charts cover small areas, and small-scale charts cover large areas.
