First, allow me to apologize in advance to the purists, Greenlanders, and anyone else that is offended by the very idea of electronics on a kayak. I promise you my interest is strictly academic.

Can a handheld GPS eliminate the need for a compass? What are it`s shortcomings?

What kind do you like?

Any opinions on small, reliable, handheld VHF radios?

Thanks, John Doe
