The Foretrex 101 and its
counterpart,
Foretrex 201, deliver hands-free GPS navigation in a
lightweight, waterproof package. Lighter than many watches, this
wrist-mounted navigator runs on 2 AAA batteries and is ideal for
kayaking, hang gliding, skiing or any other activity that
requires both hands free.
Track Back
No matter where your adventure
takes you, you'll never worry about getting lost when you're
armed with the Foretrex 101. Foretrex keeps track of your path
and displays it as a tiny dotted trail on the screen. Just turn
on Foretrex's TracBack® feature, and you can retrace your path
back to the beginning. You can save locations in memory as
waypoints (up to 500 of them), so you can always find your way
back to any important place, like your campsite or vehicle.
Foretrex also lets you put several waypoints together to create
and store routes to all of your favorite places. To keep track
of your trip, Foretrex 101 incorporates a trip computer,
sunrise/sunset and hunting and fishing information and can
connect to your PC with the serial cable.
Set Sail
For sailing races and other
competitions, you can set Foretrex's timers to count down the
start sequence of a race and sound audible alarms when a certain
time has passed. If you need to resynchronize your timer at any
time, you can do so with just one button press. The large-number
display makes it easy to see data at a glance. And, like all
Garmin handhelds, it's tough, IPX7 waterproof and easy to use
with a few operating buttons.
