    New unit 1242xsv Touch

    Garmin didn't wait for the boat show tomorrow. New 12" Touch unit. Specs look great. 2 network ports. Looks loaded to me.

    https://buy.garmin.com/en-US/US/p/619824

    Also looks like there are some variants, ie not xsv. I also saw the 1222 Touch. Is this new? Haven't noticed it before.
    My wife asks if I'm going to fish every day. I can't fish every day. Some days I might be sick.
