No. However. Push the blue button and say. What direction am I traveling. And. Onstar. Will tell you

As a genral GPS unit. It does give you a way back by reversing the route. I've never used it that way.

Using the latest ipilot with GPS. The ipilot is slow to update course corrections therefore you are off course as much as 30 feet!!!

Hi Mr. Buchman! I believe this GPS is for use by "landlubbers" only.... While the satellite to GPS link up wouldn't change, the map/voice direction information would be totally useless - no cross reference to marine information (including waypoint). Unfortunately additional software i.e. marine information is not installable by either Tom Tom or the user. You might check with Tom Tom customer service (they will respond to your telephone call - they just will not give you any repair help). Basically the Tom Tom is sold as an "orphan".... Good luck! Jim

Your GPS antenna for the main unit would give you heading. This gives Temp speed and depth.

Agree with Michael .... have fun!! If you are not experienced KEEP IT IN THE SMART MODE.. my buddy lost his today as the GPS didnt sync and he watched it fly to CUBA :(

Yes but it is a very simple procedure. As far as the "flying away" horror stories go, I have had it happen once. The reason it flew off was entirely my fault (as is the case in most cases). I forgot to flip the GPS switch to "on". If it happens to you then all you have to do is turn your RC controller "off" before it gets to far away, and it will return home. It a great product and a lot of fun. Enjoy!

I haven't yet. I normally take my BOB Revolution to the beach. I use the BOB motion when I am out and about around the city/stores.

Yes, but I don't as I don't want to risk it. GPS wont work under water so essentially a stopwatch. My bro sent me here for more infohttp://www.dcrainmaker.com/2009/09/garmin-forerunner-310xt-in-depth-review.html

I don't get the question. But to be honest the navi stinks. Always taking me the wrong way. It will get you there but it will take you the weirdest way imaginable. But to be honest, that's most navis.

It's not made to house the navigation. I'm spme what of a fabricator. You can make it work.

I haven't used it a lot yet but I think as long as you don't put the TM back in the cradle ( just pull it straight up and lock out of the water so you can use the big motor) the GPS will still be on. If you pull it up and lay it down in the cradle it will turn off electrically. I 'll have to try what I think you are saying!

If I remember correctly if you land on his peg on the start line he goes back but it should say int directions

Yes, I had no issue with getting back to the starting position by myself. Make sure you read all the safety guides, especially about the amount of time you are upside down. There is an adjustable strap that can limit the inversion distance.

The navigation stays on in the background and does interrupt to give directions

I shoot through the hull of a kayak. Is the underside if the deck in constant contact with the water? If there is any air gap it will not work. Please also more that this "track plotter" is not the same as a regular chart plotter. It will show you where you have been, but will NOT let you select a waypoint to navigate to. I bought it and did not attempt to install for a few months due to shoulder immobility post surgery. Then I found this out when not was too late to return it.
