Thanks all for the replys... I currently use a Garmin 48 marine handheld for sailing, and like you and other posters have said, it is a good unit and Garmin does have good customer service.
One would have thought that there would be more wristwatch gps's or aftermarket straps too allow the user to strap the gps to the forearm by now.
I am about to build an arm band mount for my Garmin Etrex. I am going to start with the pouch that Garmin sells. It has a steel belt clip on the back. I intend to build or buy an arm band that will accept this "holster." This should give me a good hiking, sailing mount for my gps while it is recording my tracks
Let me know how this turns out. I would like to see a picture of it.
