Real estate is a bit tight so I'm looking mainly at 5" units or a one of the 7" models that have a more compact overall design. Right now I'm leaning towards the Garmin echoMap, Humminbird Helix, and RayMarine DragonFly Pro lines. The Helix and Dragon both have a higher screen resolution that I really like. I'm looking for any good, bad and ugly experiences you may have. Or recommendations for other units.
