 The
GPSMAP 168 Sounder packs a boatload of features in a sleek unit that won't
eat up precious onboard space.

which includes a depth-finder. The unit also contains an impressive list
of features including a powerful 12 parallel channel GPS receiver and
tide prediction tables. Featuring a built-in worldwide basemap with U.S.
highways, interstates, rivers, and lakes, the GPSMAP 168 Sounder also
can download up to 2.5 MB of extra map data from Garmin's MapSource®
line of CD-ROMs, including Recreational
Lakes with Fishing Hot Spots* and U.S.

Physically, the unit resembles Garmin's popular Fishfinder 240.
It measures about five by six inches in size and boasts a four-level gray
FSTN LCD display with 240 x 240 pixels. Even in the dark the unit is easy
to read, thanks to a backlit display.
Additionally, the GPSMAP 168 Sounder has a 150-watt depth-finder to
make catching fish a whole lot easier. The unit features Garmin's exclusive
See-Thru® technology which will help separate fish returns from thermoclines
and structure. What's more, a graphic whiteline on the GPSMAP 168 Sounder
provides a clear image of both bottom hardness and structure.
*Some lake information (such as Lake of the Woods) on
the Recreational Lakes with Fishing Hot Spots CDs have file sizes too
large to download to this unit.
