You should navigate the San Juan and Canadian Gulf islands, then you really need radar with all of our ship traffic for the refineries and Vancouver B.C. traffic. I have 2 GPS units but no radar. I run very slow in the heavy fog, really don't go out in much anymore since I turned into a fair weather fisherman. My old fishing buddy had a Raytheon(?) on his 20 footer and we could navigate through the crab pot buoys. It takes 2 people to use one, one to drive and one to stare at the small screen.
