This past weekend, all our on board electronic "died", so I pulled out the backup Garmin 12 to verify my position. This was the first time I had ever needed to use it. I plugged in waypoints off the chart, and the Garmin was off by a "country mile" in both course and distance. I verified that I had entered the correct numbers (I had) but still WAY OFF. Any ideas? BTW, A while back I had compared positions on both the Garmin 12 and my built in Raytheon GPS and they were the same. I guess the only good thing to come out of all this is.. that I still remember how to chart a course the "old fashion way"
