The Parts Forum - Garmin GPSMAP 640 FS *** SOLD ***

*** SOLD *** SOLD ***

I purchased this Garmin GPSMAP 640 Nov 2011 as a backup GPS for an ocean run from NJ to VA and boy did it come in handy. I am selling it now to raise some cash for outdrive repairs. This is a pretty nice unit since it has its own battery (9hrs) and covers both auto and boat navigation. I also purchased a RAM suction mount that attaches to any smooth. It never let go the whole trip. Also does XM WX satellite weather and radio with the addition of a GXM 40 antenna and has a brilliant 5.2-inch WVGA screen. Unit is 100%, no damage at all, storage in the house since the trip. See full spec below.
Researching the internet the cheapest one I could find new was $636 shipped and there were some refurbished ones for $515 shipped. I am asking $475 shipped in Cont US and this includes the RAM Mount. (note; this model does not come with a suction mount from the factory). Thanks for looking.

There have been some questions about the conditon of the screen. The picture originally posted showed some fuzz from the carpet. There are no scratches on the screen or housing. Here is a better picture taken this morning outside. Thanks.
