Will The Garmin 76c/cs Have A Serial Port?

My 76CS does not have a serial connection.  Only USB.  Garmin sells a USB to RS232 converter cable

That's a surprise. The Garmin website states "Loading charts or maps is faster, too — thanks to a reliable USB connection. Navigation instructions can be shared with repeaters, plotters, and autopilots using NMEA protocols through the dedicated serial port as well."

The quote above is CORRECT....

 

IT DOES HAVE A SERIAL PORT.

 

It does NOT ship with a serial CABLE.

 

If you don't have one, GPSgeek is a good source.
