Thanks for the information. I was looking at the Lowrance Elite Ti but they can not be networked. I also was looking at the Garmin locators they can be networked however the striker doesn't have a lake map but can save way points and the echoMap has lake maps, do you think that if you had a map at the console but not at the bow but could save the way points between the two would be good or would you want a map at each location.
