I have a Garmin marine gps820 chart plotter but despite having fiddled with all the buttons, settings and in desperation, even referred to the manual, I just can't work out how to display gps, speed over ground (SOG). I'm sure I'm being a numpty. Please can someone help?
 
Agree it's probably in overlays.
Does it display any sort of speed? If it does, it's almost certainly SOG.

No, you can select from a huge range of data to display in whatever data fields you choose to add to the display. I've set mine to show a data box in each of the 4 corners of the screen, and I display water speed, depth, apparent wind speed, apparent wind direction.
