[quote=samc99us]I used both a Foretrex 101 and Foretrex 301 during last years Tybee. Yes they leak but its not the end of the world, they keep on trucking and water damage is a free replacement under Garmin's standard 1 year warranty. IMO, if you are going to do any distance racing you can't use a rechargeable device that doesn't have replacement batteries as you may need to change the batteries at least once while on the water, and there isn't time in the evenings to deal with charging batteries.
Also, the Foretrex 201 isn't available anymore at retail stores. Avoid the forerunner as they lack the proper functionality for sailing.
