Welcome and congratulations on your purchase of one of the Magellan SporTrak
GPS mapping receivers. The SporTrak has all the features that a sailor,
fisherman, hiker, hunter, or any person involved with outdoor recreational
activities has come to expect from a Magellan GPS receiver. In addition to these
features, the SporTrak offers the ability to display your location on detailed city
maps providing you with a complete navigation tool that will last you for years to
come.
Magellan has been a leader in the hand-held GPS market since introducing the
world’s first commercial, hand-held GPS receiver in 1989. Since that time
Magellan has continued to equip the outdoorsman and consumer markets with
navigational receivers, all the way from the first GPS receiver for under $100 to
automotive receivers with turn-by-turn routing capabilities.
Before you begin, make sure that your package includes all of the items listed on
the packing list. Magellan is a trademark name for Thales Navigation.
