Product Description
Offshore fishermen and boaters will gravitate toward this sleek, space-saving chartplotter. The GPSMAP 440 features preloaded detailed maps for the U.S. coast as well as an ultra-bright 4" QVGA display; built-in, satellite-enhanced worldwide basemap and simplified user operation.The 440 has preloaded detailed maps that cover all U.S. coastal areas, including Alaska and Hawaii. For areas outside the U.S., the 440 has a worldwide basemap with satellite images in place of more traditional maps, and its SD card slot makes it easy to add additional maps without connecting to a computer. With fewer keys and a simple, intuitive interface, the 440 makes navigating your way through the water easy.Where applicable, the sounder version, GPSMAP 440s, comes with a powerful dual frequency transducer that clearly paints depth contours, fish targets and structure. It's also CANet compatible, so you can share sounder data with another chartplotter on your boat. The weather-enabled versions, GPSMAP 440x and 440sx, display XM satellite weather data, including NEXRAD radar, with the GXM 31 antenna.

 Best Bang for the Buck January 6, 2009
Bricescreek (Brices Creek)
The Garman 440 from Amazon was the best marine GPS for the money (back last year when I got it). I checked around on prices and saved 200$ over West Marine's price by getting it here. I'd give the unit 5 stars, but the screen is on the small side (4"?) and you'll benifit from a 5 or 6" screen. It's waaaay too bright at night, but easy to adjust, and it's nice and bright for daylight viewing. My wife even enjoys piloting with the Garmin. I love my little GPS, just wish I could afford a bigger screen for my 27' Albin boat.
 A step backwards for Garmin September 8, 2007

From the time you turn this unit you wonder what Garmin was thinking. Its hard to use, has a smaller screen than previous units (GPSMAP172C, for example), and the user manual is virtually useless...it doesn't even explain how to use many of the basic features. Also of note is the reduction in buttons which result in having to use too many sub-menus (by the time you figure out how to use the MOB feature the MOB will be a gonner). Way too complicated....took me hours to try to figure out how to use the features. On the plus side the screen is very bright even if the resolution is not the greatest (block letters are not as easy to read) and a good set of marine charts is standard. Its not all bad and it does do the job reasonably well, just a step backwards and very pricy. Garmin....you can do better!
