Anyone got a SH GX1600?

Has anyone got a SH GX1600 or similar SH GX?

What's channel 69 description say? Mine all appear normal, til I got to ch69. The description underneath- Pleasure.

No, I'm not kidding, but I can't get the camera to take a good enough pic.

Yeah - my Navman had the legend Leisure/Pleasure under Ch69.

It rapidly became our "working channel"...

69

It's like Swindon. We all have to go there occasionally, but the scenery's crap and no-one wants to hang about...

69 is generally a non commercial channel, often considered for leisure purpose.

Your "Leisure" boating is called "Pleasure" boating on this side of the pond.

Ch 69 is one of the Pleasure boating ship to ship channels.
