Well, after going back and forth on which FF to buy I went with the HB 383c. A little more than I was going to spend, but I liked the GPS/FF as a unit and the color screen. My handheld GPS is getting old , so I thought I would give this unit a try. There was so many nice fishfinders out there that it really makes it hard to decide on which one. Thanks everyone for your help.

I just bought a 2nd hand 383c and I have only used it once. So far I like it.It does everything I wanted in a combo unit except it does not take a card. The map that is on it is all you can get....Unless somebody knows something I dont.....I have heard nothing but good things about the 383c...I'll put it to the test staring next month. Let me know how you like it.

I'm sure there is a difference, but I'm not "good" enough to tell it. In addition, the way I fish, I'm not worried about what I see within a brushpile, I'm only interested in finding the brush in the first place. I use a 12ft Sam Heaton to confirm what's in and what is not in the pile.
That said, it depends on what you're relying on the unit for.

A lot like the old Wannabe... except with fewer bad words. And Karate chop action. But, yes, still purtier than you.

Whoops, I didn't read all the responses before I posted I guess. That 383c TNT bought was mine. Like him, I only used it once maybe twice after I bought the boat it came on, but I was pretty impressed with it. I think you'll be happy with the fish finder part of it, but I can't say about the GPS. I really didn't get to play with that feature on the 383C much before I took it off the boat.
