What should i be looking for ect.


thank you
I wouldn't worry about a Chart Plotter, And for a GPS I would only worry about that if you plan to try night boating...... What you do however really need to do is to go get a map of the lake... Bizer is probably the easiest to use, but the Duncan press version is also good.

Why do I suggest a map? Not only will it aid in navigation, but as you begin boating on Winni it will help you chart your adventures....

While GPS units can be used, some of which are coming with markers already in them.... the best way to learn the lake is by using a map.....and asking questions....
