    Thoughts on Chartplotter upgrade

    I am looking for some advice or direction... I currently have a Garmin GPSMAP 531s. The unit is great but a little compact as a chartplotter. The screen is only 5” and it is pushing 11 yrs in age. I am wanting to upgrade in the Garmin line (if possible) to a 7 or 9 inch chartplotter. Your...

    I finally got around to installing my Christmas present, a Garmin Echomap Plus 93sv. Flush mount, with the GT52 transducer. I haven't put the boat in the water yet, but no issues with the install or operation of the unit thus far. I wired it to one of the unused auxiliary switches. -Huge thanks...

    Best In-hull (shoot-thru) transducer

    So I've been trying to decide which chartplotter/fish finder to install in my 2019 SX210.....From what I've found so far, there seems to be plus and minus to the various brands (garmin vs lowrance vs hummingbird) and it turns into a chevy vs ford comparison. Since I've decided that I am going...

    Looking at maybe buying a Garmin-ECHOMAP-Plus-74cv-with-Transducer...opinions?

    I am considering buying a new GPS fish finder because my current Garmin is older, 5" screen with no touch screen and limited depth capability (600' only). This one is a 2 year old model, only $499 including the transducer, will go to 1100' in salt water (probably a little less in reality)-but...

    Garmin Striker Plus 4cv installation on 2013 SX210

    Hi All - I have really enjoyed this forum. As a new owner of a 2013 SX210, it has really been helpful during the purchase and early ownership period. I'd like to pay that back with some details on my recent installation of a Garmin Striker Plus 4cv. I had started a nice step by step but...

    So I'm beginning to contemplate where I will mount my Garmin 541 on the new boat (242x) and seek some varied angled shots of the dash area, and your thoughts as to where the best place to mount one would be. The only mounting point I recall seeing on this model is putting the mount in the cup...

    Garmin 741xs

    Does anyone a Garmin device? I really like the layout of the 741xs. I know it is over sized but that doesn't bother me at all. If you have this or any other Garmin that has the card slots, have you tried the G2 vision card? Is it worth the money to upgrade? I like the auto guidance feature but...
