Scott, I couldn't tell which unit you were posting about. I use the Map76 Garmin. Is this the one you asked about?

i used this link


http://www.garmin.com/marine/compare.jsp

and clicked on the 176 and 162 on the lower left hand side then did a side buy side comparison.

the 176 is more rich in options, thought the screen is smaller, it has more pixels and more colours of grey.

a huge difference is the number of way points too. cant have too many of those buggers before your trail starts to dissapear on long trips.
