From the Garmin website

Most newer Garmin® GPS units are waterproof in accordance with IEC 60529 IPX7. IEC 60529 is a European system of test specification standards for classifying the degrees of protection provided by the enclosures of electrical equipment. An IPX7 designation means the GPS case can withstand accidental immersion in one meter of water for up to 30 minutes. An IPX8 designation is for continuous underwater use.

Waterproof for up to 30min at a depth of 1 meter.

Take a look at This thread and scroll down to Mr Whatton's posts, if you need convincing about the quest's waterproofing. It's guaranteed for immersion in up to 1m of water for up to 30 minutes, if I recall correctly.

Either Whatton & Fanum have identical tastes in tropical fish or they're shacked up together

Ps. You lovely couple need to treat that Quest for whitespot.
