    Anybody have one of these? Thoughts? Suggestions on comparable one's? I don't really troll so I'm not looking for all the expensive bells and whistles.

    Played with one at BPS after looking and reading about it in catalogues. Nice looking built in maps. I give it a thumbs up, but have no on the water experience with it. That said, I recommend the HDS lineup with insite mapping and adjust the screen size to your budget. There really is no better mapping to be had and 2d, DI and side scan is as good if not better than the competition IMO.

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