Default chartplotters

Steve,

I bought a Furuno gp 1650 wf/nt ($1,350 +/-)at the beginning of the season. It was alittle pricey, but i've been using it all season on Lake Winni (Bizer Chart) and on the ocean, and it's proven itself worth every penny. Nightime navigation is a breeze. The first couple of weeks I used the plotter and had the charts right in front of me all the time to "double check", but now i never look at the paper charts at all. Also, the built in fishfinder gives a nice bottom profile while you're out there muckholing. Good luck with your decision.
