I've seen the Humminbird 587 as cheap as $307 new. It has GPS SD card slot 2D sonar and down imaging. As far as I can tell it is the same as the 597 but has a 4.5in screen instead of a 5in screen. A friend of mine has this unit and is a good one.
So about how much for the 597.So the 587 has a 4.5 in screen but the 597 has a 5in screen am i right.

You are correct nabob but there is a difference in the pixel count for each unit too:Quote:

I like the 597ci hd di but i don't have $550 to pay for a ff.My price can't go no higher than $400.
There are some good used ones bigger than that over in the Personal Classified board
You should also contact the board sponsors for better pricing than the MSRP price that they have to show on their web sites.
