Garmin 546s **FREE TO A GOOD HOME**

I have a fully functioning Garmin 546s with power cable (no transducer) FREE to anybody that wants to pay for shipping.  It works just fine, I just decided to upgrade.  So, I am throwing this to anybody who may want it.

Comes with dust cover and no damage anywhere on the unit.  First come first served.

Cheers!

    I've been looking to upgrade, I wonder if my 182c transducer will work with it??

    It's yours aero3113.  PM me your shipping address and I will send it out tomorrow.  Also, it does come with the mount (complete) so you will not need to hunt down a mount.

    I mostly use my phone but this will make a great replacement for my 182C and use as a back up. Do you know what transducer you were using?

    Great unit. I had the 426s in a previous boat. With the right Vision Bluechart chip it has an auto guidance (route) feature that is awesome. My newer Humminbird in this boat doesn't have it and I miss it.

    When I use my phone I use the Navionics App, it has auto guidance. Make it so easy to use and navigate. Did you use the unit with a transducer or just use it as a GPS? I might just use it as a GPS, not sure if I want to drill holes.

    Mine had a transducer and was sonar also. Hence the "s" in the model number.

    Did you use a through hull or transom mount transducer? If I do use one I would rather a through hull. Do they make a through hull compatible with this unit?

    Mine was transom mount. Don't know if they make a thru hull. Probably.

    Just in case it falls through, I've got a buddy that really needs a GPS. His wife just got pregnant so the boat finds are limited, and he's needing something for nighttime motoring other than just following me. Lol

    @JoeStang the unit is on its way to me, if for some reason I end up not using it I'll let you know. But if all goes well with it I'll have my Garmin 182C you can give him.

    That'd be awesome too. I know he'd love anything he could could use and not put big money into. He's a truly great friend, and most likely future Rinker owner. He got a great deal on a Mariah that he couldn't pass up tho.

    @Yachtsman1304 ,I just received the 546s. Thank you! Hopefully I’ll have it wired up this weekend. @JoeStang let me know if your friend is interested in my 182c.

    @JoeStang here’s a pic of the 182C. I think I have the manual also, I just have to look for it on the boat. Also, your friend will need an external GPS antenna for this unit. The antennas are pretty reasonable (Maybe someone on the forum has one laying around).
