For Sale: Garmin GPSMAP 4208 $1000

[earthbm]

I have 2 units, this one is effectively the spare one. I can mount it on a swivel ball, just can't figure out why I need two chartplotters. So it just sits in a box, I only take it out when I do Garmin firmware updates. It is practically like new, although I did take the plastic film off the screen because it felt good to do so (better than popping the bubble wrap).

New ones are $2k. Refurbished ones on the internet are $1.5k. So this is a good deal. You pay shipping.

Comes with power cable, GPS antenna. It has pre-loaded charts for North Am and the Bahamas. More details here: https://buy.garmin.com/shop/shop.do?pID=8113

I installed another Garmin Firmware update today so took some pictures:

1. Loading the update:


2. Back of the unit (you can see my other chartplotter in the background):


3. "Fishing" map (this is built in, no card needed):


4. Combo screen, with Nav map, radar screen, sonar screen:


As you can see on the last pic it was getting dark so I went home.

Interested but price is rich when I can buy factory refurbished unit from top rated seller on ebay for $100 more. I have a 5212 that I easily move up and down from my bridge depending on weather. This would run on my network. What's your bottom line? I will be leaving for the Bahamas in in 2 weeks.

Price is firm, I'll just keep it if it doesn't sell.
$1100 for a refurb unit you mention is a pretty good price, depends on condition. In any case, if you're leaving in two weeks, the shipping cost to get it there in time is about to go up.

Hi Earthbm, I just sent you a private message about your Garmin with my contact info. Hope to hear back soon. Thanks much.

FWIW,

I personally know earthbm and the previous owner of this boat.
The unit he's selling has had very little use and has been stored properly.

The unit is now SOLD. Thank you.
