I have never used mine to locate a grave site. I have county maps and
graveyards are marked on them. If a site is found that is not on the
map marking can be done manually.
Three brands are popular for cars, Garmin, Tom-Tom and Magellan. The
type that is used in the car may not be what you want for lat/lon.
Or, you can do what we did when fi****ng years ago - when you find a
good fi****ng hole, mark an "X" on the side of the boat. 8-)
Merry Christmas and Happy New Year Louisiana Gal.
