[#0000FF]Sorry. Didn't mean to be insulting. My reply was based upon reviews from others...on other forums...who had tried this unit and found it lacking for their fishing needs.
Choosing a sonar system is like choosing a rod, reel, line, automobile or anything else we buy. Ultimately it boils down to what do we want, what can we afford, what really turns us on. And once we make our decisions we will defend them to the death because anyone who challenges them is making a personal attack.
I do not buy "high end" sonars. Over the years I have bought and tried a wide variety of units. Most have been under $200. And most have been very basic...depth, temp and fish ID. Don't need any more than that for float tubing. But I do like real time display, good bottom composition readouts, accurate target depiction...and a large easy-to-read screen. I also like to set and forget...without having to constantly fiddle with the adjustments. And I like having the screen mounted in a fixed place for quick and easy checking.
Those are just my preferences and opinions. You are entitled to yours. Good luck in your search.
