VA911 Posted November 25, 2007 Share Posted November 25, 2007 Hi all, Its time to upgrade sounder on the boat and also thought a gps / plotter would be tops to have as well. is there any particular brand / mod. that anyone can recommend or are they all much of a muchness. dont want to spend over $1600. will i get something good for this kind of money or should i budget more? its going on a 4.6m alloy boat so i am not going out to the shelf. cheers and your opinions are much sought after Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
netic Posted November 26, 2007 Share Posted November 26, 2007 Mate if you want a quality sounder i would recommend the Furuno 620, but this isnt a combo unit...... Good brand combo units are Garmins and Lowrances I know Crazy John is look at selling His Raymarine a65 combo unit which cost him over $2500 and he is looking for less then your looking at spending.... Saty away from Brands Like Navman, although good units on paper/specs in practice they are definately the worst out of the bunch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VA911 Posted November 27, 2007 Author Share Posted November 27, 2007 Nectic, thanks for the advice, Have spoken to a lot of people and done a lot of research and agree that the Furuno 620 is the way to go. Now all i need to do is find a cheap GPS/plotter. Its time i got out of the dark ages!!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
