just a couple of questions to put to the board, first, whats the most reasonable hand held gps, that i can buy , just for testing speeds, this summer, secondly, without being on the isle of white, whats the best coastline to watch the cowes classic from, cheers reece

i had a garmin etrex that was very good,plenty of 2nd hand ones on ebay i would think. and hurst point/castle would be a good spot to watch
