I highly recommend that you get a radio that allows you to use an external speaker/mic, it adds additional cost to the purchase but it's well worth it.

I have to disagree with the "floating radio" part...BUY ONE THAT FLOATS! GPS not needed...

I have dropped my radio in the drink a few times and everytime it floated, and was saved. But buy all means buy the best GPS/Fishfinder you CAN'T afford!
