    • Great price for a great device
Style: GPSMAP 86sci Pattern: Handheld GPS
We updated all our units from the boats to one handheld for piece of mind.

    • Came with outdated maps, won’t update for free
Style: GPSMAP 86sci Pattern: Handheld GPS
Only had this device for a couple of days but have already seen that the 86sci is quite a loaded device. I opted for this handheld because of the inReach capabilities. It was a bit difficult to set up, but finally got it activated using Garmin messenger app. You need a paid plan for it to work and I went with unlimited monthly plan, which you can suspend if you’re not going to use the device for a prolonged period of time. One thing I was extremely disappointed in a $600 unit was the map version present on the device was out of date. I went online with Garmin express to update the device and found that a new map database was available, however they wanted $100!! $100 to update a brand new device right out of the box. I called garmin support and unfortunately they said they don’t provide free updates to handheld devices. I said I thought that was unacceptable to charge someone $100 to make the device up to date as one would expect when buying a brand new unit. Other than coming with outdated maps I really like this device. I fish offshore out of cell range so the ability to stay in touch with my fishing buddies is a big plus. It’s also loaded with multiple other features and includes a light. I got a great price on Amazon which unfortunately for others only lasted a day. ... show more

    • Good to have inReach function
Style: GPSMAP 86i Pattern: Handheld GPS
The inReach function is good. The device works fine like the other Garmin handheld device I have used before. Only one suggestion: the different main functions ( like Map, Main Menu, Trip Computer, Messages etc...) needs to scroll with the 'Quit'/Page key. If I press the Quit/Page key too fast, the function is passed, I need to press the Quit key again for next round the function appears. If all the main functions can be shown on a single page and selected with arrow key like other level of function selection, it will be much better. ... show more

    • Great tool
Style: GPSMAP 86i Pattern: Handheld GPS
I bought this after getting lost in the mangroves for several hours while out paddling. My phone went dead and at dusk my husband called 911. I found my way off the water and looked up and there was a helicopter looking for me. Never again! Just be prepared to spend another $250 or so on a good map, plus a subscription. Worth it for me! Some of the reviews mention that it takes a time investment to learn how to use it. Yes, it does. But honestly it's not that hard if you value the freedom that it gives you! My experience with Garmin tech support has been very good. With the subscription, I can paddle alone and it will send tracking info to my husband during my entire paddle. I can set waypoints and find my way back home easily. I can also plan routes ahead of time and follow those. Plus it has an SOS button that will call the cavalry in case of a real emergency. It's just what I needed. ... show more

    • Rugged, quirky, user experience anything but seamless
Style: GPSMAP 86i Pattern: Handheld GPS
Rugged, with just a few buttons, this is made for punishing environments. In the cabin of a ship, with little internet access, the user experience is very fragmented. You will need two smart phone or tablet apps, two Garmin web sites, a Garmin desktop app, and fairly frequent internet access to effectively use this. It does not share GPS position over NMEA nor Bluetooth with other shipboard devices. It keeps position to itself. Messaging will be with the explore app, but the app not having position, the position will be missing from the message (even though the device, which knows position, is doing the actual sending). The cradle does not hold the unit firmly enough. In the moving boat, it jiggles disconnect. Some very carefully applied epoxy to build-up the indent on the back of the device solved this. The device auto-shuts off when removed from the cradle; so, two careful button presses each time you take it down. This gets old. This feature protects the battery from going dead on power loss. An any-key response to keep it awake would be better. Or better, a setting that disables this behavior. When it powers-down, the current tracking session is interrupted. The interaction between tracking and recording is mind boggling. They try hard with dialogs about the interactions that have to be acknowledged over and over. Better would be one or the other with a switch to control the live tracking. Most of the other function overlaps. Saving an "activity" creates a track on the map distinct from the tracking track, which is always saved. One shows up in "activities" and the other in "tracks". See what I mean? Little bugs. The time zones aren't programmed correctly. My unit was an hour off for a while along Pacific coastal Mexico. There's no time zone setting that will simply display the UTC value from the GPS satellites. Below about 1.4 knots it shows heading 180 degrees off (reversed). update: after about two years on the boat it simply gave up the ghost. it won’t charge and won’t turn on. such a rugged device and the charge port is a cheesy USB mini plug. there’s no removing the battery or external charging ... show more

    • Staying in touch us what’s important

The device is really sturdy and it works well. Things are a bit slower with satellite, but that’s not the device - it’s the whole deal. I recommend…

Light weight-covered in a tacky rubber that makes it easy to hold on to when moving in a boat Battery Life- is over 24 hours of use in GPS. I accidentally forgot to turn it off after a full 8 hours on the water left it on the counter picked up the next day and used it for the entire day on the water again with no charging. Bread Crumbs-I love the bread crumbs feature and live tracking I wish-It had the same display as the in boat garmin gps. it would make using the device easy and take no getting used to Yellow Tape-I put a piece of yellow electrical tape on the antenna, so if it goes over board it will be easy to see regardless if it is face up or face down in the water. Floatation-floats both face up and face down. ... show more
