Marine GPS repair

I have a Lowrance Globalnav310 in for repair. The fault doesnt seem to be much of a problem but it defies me to even open up the case. The only way in that i can figure is almost certainly going to seiously compomise its water resistance. therefore making it virtualy useless for the job its designed to do. The manual downloadable from the Lowrance site was as expected an "how to plug it in and what buttons to press thing", hence useless! It is of course way out of guarantee and marine electronics companies are notorious for the line "we dont support our old product lines. would you like to buy a new one?" has anyone any suggestions? thanks in advance

Unfortunately, often cases of this sort of stuff is either ultrasonically or solvent welded, meaning it's hard to open without significant damage. Slicing it open along as clean a line as you can, followed by either as good a seal as you can make, or putting on an external housing is only the only option.
