[QUOTE="SJB, post: 1322942, member: 23940"] If all you want to do is plot your track via gps so you can make sure you're going straight and a certain distance away from the last pass, I can think of two outside the box ways that would be cheap. This one sounds dumb, but it would work for the basics. I bass fish a lot. In the fall and winter I routinely idle for hours over precise offshore structure by using my Lawrance depth finder/gps combo. It shows your trail real time, keeps tracks and waypoints for as long as you want, is highly accurate. You could literally mount a cheap lowrance gps only unit on your tractor. ~$500 The better idea, is to get you an iPad and a mount and use one of the several iOS apps for little or nothing in cost. The gps in an iOS device is also highly accurate and fast. Plus you could use the iPad (or iPhone) for other stuff, or you may already have one. [/QUOTE]
