               BOATING:

Information:  Link:
"All About GPS": Garmin's info and additional links  http://www.garmin.com/aboutGPS.html
"Articles and Setup Tips": Several good articles on setup and more (by Rico at Nichols Marine)  http://www.nicholsmarine.com/library.htm
"Prop Calculator": Change any variable and see the results. Unlike other "calculators", this one does NOT automatically add 1" for "cup".  http://go-fast.com/Prop_Slip_Calculator.htm
"Propellors": OMC's page on propellor basics. Good reading.  http://www.omc-online.com/docktalk/prop/prop_main.html

"Tips and Ideas": Heavy on the HiP end, but recommended reading (by Sam at Baker Marine)  http://www.scaryfast.com/Tipsidea.htm
"Prop Workshop": This is a DOWNLOADABLE speed calc program I picked up a bit over two years ago as share/freeware. It tracks with running the numbers on a calculator and allows a lot of "what if". Note, it automatically adds 1" to pitch!  props.zip
