Great over all product. Great price. Quick delivery. With basic skills you can install this. Linking to other units, i.e. AIS radio connection is a little more complicated. I have hooked these up before so kind of knew what to look for. Remember that...

Product Specifications

Plug into the power of the Garmin Marine network with the Garmin 3200 series. Rugged, waterproof, and easy to install, these chartplotters come preloaded with Garmin's detail-rich marine cartography utilizing BlueChart g2 technology. The GPSMAP 3205 offers a mid-range option for boaters wanting the benefits of a seamless plug-and-play system. It has a 5-inch color display, and it can serve as a standalone plotter or network with other MFDs and sensors to deliver XM weather, radar and sonar. Unlike its 6- and 10-inch counterparts, this one does not offer a remote control, VGA output or video input options. However, it does provide full Garmin marine networking capability in a compact, budget-friendly format. Convenient soft key functions allow you to assign a feature such as map declutter to a specific key.
