I managed to let my radio go swimming 2 weekends ago  :smt011 so I was searching around for good prices on a new one and found this link here (thanks!).  Turned out they still had some at this price so I ordered one.. came via fedex yesterday and its very nice so far.  Way lighter than my old sinkable BRICK.. er I mean Hx280, and has more features.

After going crabbing at night on the opener w/ no fish finder, gps, or radio.... I went and got the STANDARD HORIZON HX851S.  It was $260 on the pricey side, but where it saved me money was the GPS built in.  I used that on the second and third crabbing trip and its not like a real gps which shows you the terrain, but a compass with dots as the way points.  I used it and it sufficed for looking for my crab floats, so I plan on not buying a gps, since it works close as one.
