I like gps. I use it for golf, fishing, hiking and many other uses. I can use celetial navigation loran etc. But on the lake I carry a gps. It is relatively old but works for marking fishing holes, checking boat speeds etc.

About 4 years ago I was at the 4th of July firworks show and trying to get back to the river bridge. There was quite a thunderstorm and it was obvious that many people were lost. You could not see the bowlight on the front of your boat. But I was able to follow my gps line home.

I still don't know how the gps was able to function in those conditions, as it has failed with much less cloud cover. And like LTL it does not always work in the fog.

It is just another fun gadget to have.

LTL I learned the lake in days of old with the guy from Sylacauga, who drove the red twin sister to the Golden Phantom. Do you know what ever really happened to that old boy and the suitcase of money?
