The Foretrex 201 is a wearable Personal Navigator, perfect for
outdoor and marine enthusiasts who desire hands-free GPS navigation in a lightweight,
affordable package. At a mere 2.75 ounces, this waterproof wonder is lighter
than most watches, and its wrist-top mount frees up hands for outdoor activities.
Sporting an ergonomic wristband, the Foretrex 201 is similar in design to the Forerunner
201, yet is chocked full of GPS navigation features found in Garmin's popular Geko 201 unit.
With a user-friendly interface, the rugged Foretrex 201 simplifies navigation,
making it ideal for the backcountry or water. Its six dedicated buttons (GoTo,
Page, Enter/Mark, Up, Down and Power) make it easy to operate. It offers the
most essential navigation data enhanced GPS accuracy, extensive storage
for waypoints, and reversible routes and tracks on an easy-to-read
display. Don't worry about packing extra batteries, because the Foretrex 201
runs on an internal lithium battery for 15 hours (typical use). Simply recharge
and go.
The Foretrex 201 also comes equipped with special features sure to please
mariners and hikers alike. It includes a unique application for sailing and
paragliding racers that allows them to configure the start sequence of a race.
The countdown is displayed in a large-number format that audibly alerts the
user at each phase of the start sequence. With the help of Garmin's exclusive
TracBack® technology, hikers can mark a campsite, go trekking all day,
and follow the electronic "breadcrumb trail" back to camp in time for dinner.
