This radio does that since it contains a GPS, see specs. Also serves as a backup for your radio should it fail, especially if you have Verizon cell service on the water and can't get a signal!

So my reasoning was serves both as a backup to the GPS and the radio.
I also have the Droid GPS with Navionics.
