Any mariners out there? This is an amazing deal at West Marine: the Garmin Oregon 400c – Only $299.99!. There’s no formal expiration date, so we don’t know how long the deal will last. If you see that it’s gone, please drop a comment below. This pricing is good through December 24.

I haven’t reviewed this model, but I have reviewed the Oregon 400t. Its basically the same except that instead of topo maps, you get built-in BlueChart® g2 coastal charts and a worldwide basemap with imagery.
