Kingfish87su Posted September 27, 2012 Share Posted September 27, 2012 G'day raiders, I'm looking at buying a depth sounder/ fish finder and I have done a fair bit of research into it, but would like to hear some opinions and expertise before I buy one. I really like the Furuno GP- 1870F as this has GPS in it and can also reach depths of up to 1200M it has the spilt screen 50/200 kHz transducer capability and I was wondering if I can get something that has a screen of around 10 inches. My price range is between 2000-5000 any help would be appreciated cheers. Cheers Su Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We sell most brands,the good ones at least, so if you narrow down your budget I will give you my thoughs on what I would fit, but a $5K set-up is ALOT better than a $2K set-up. Cheers, Huey.

a boat Posted September 27, 2012 Share Posted September 27, 2012 Hi Stu, no problem and the world of marine electronics is a confusing one and changes almost weekly as to who has the best product for the best value. Cheers, Huey. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
