I'm not sure, but the Livorsi GPS speedo comes with the GPS unit that picks up the signal doesn't it? Seems kind of a waste to buy a GPS speedo that doesn't come with the GPS unit to feed it the speed?

Just put the GPS speedo in my boat.
They have downsized the GPS anttena to
the size of a silver dollar. Not bad
looking, really.

Installation rules say it has to have an
unobstructed view of the sky with no metal
near it, like a windshield.

A handheld GPS unit attached to the speedo
will have to have a clear view of the heavens
also.

Still playing with mine to decide where I will
do the permanent mount. Probably the middle of the dash, if I can get away with it.

Really nice stuff from Livorsi.

I have one of those GPS speedos and they have to have the antenna that comes with them. The company told me that it will not work with a regular GPS as the signals are not all the same.

I really works great!!!

I just orderd the gaffrig GPS Spedo. It comes with a "mouse" antenna that you can mount right under the dash. I'll let you guys know how it works in a couple of days. (cost is about $180 for the spedo & almost $200 for the antenna!!!)
