    Looking to upgrade my GPS set up for my skiff. Currently have an old Garmin EchoMap 52cv. Kind of a bitch to navigate with and want a slightly bigger screen. What’s everyone’s favorites. Should I stay in the Garmin family? Maybe Lowrance? Really just want something with good GPS/Chartplotting...

    Over the last couple months my Simrad GO7 XSR has started to reset itself back to factory settings every couple weeks. I lose all my settings, tracks, datapoints, etc and have to basically set the unit up again each time. It's not the end of the world but it's just a pain in the ass. Any...

    Been ignoring the hard water spots building up on my display now for awhile and figured it's something I should have started managing awhile back. Any suggestions on a good process or method for buffing them out?

    I repurposed a 7.5 quart engel drybox to house two 30ah (battery life at ~30 hours) lithium phosphate batteries, attached a 6” seasucker, and then mounted my gps on top with a balzout mount. I also attached a SAE charging port and master switch. Works great, has a small footprint that I can set...

    Been looking around for a GPS. Way too many out there. Looking for a reliable GPS thats simple to use... I'm not the most tech savy.

    Hello fishy friends. I'm back again with more questions regarding my Heron 16 build coming up in January. I'm looking for the best GPS + sonar combo for my Heron 16. I'm assuming 7" screen will be plenty big but I'm looking for opinions from the experts on this one. Let me know your favorite...

    I am in the market for a GPS/Chartplotter, and was hoping to get some insights. I am based in Texas, and will be primarily fly fishing in-shore. The previous owner has it wired for a Lowrance (including a transducer). I am not sure if the older transducer is compatible with newer Lowrance units...

    Anyone running one of the newer VHFs with built in GPS? The upgrade seemed like a cheap backup compared to buying a handheld. I just bought a Standard GX 1800G. Anything I should be aware of, or watch out for? Or opinions in general...

    I seldom turn on my GPS since I've been running the Glades below Chok for 30 years or so. However, when I take take friends and family to remote areas I want them to have a clear path back toward civilization/help should something should happen to me. My dated system has been malfunctioning so...

    Hi guys, Possibly you could help me out on my search. Right now I use navionics on my phone purely for the satellite overlay and sonar chart GPS when navigating, but id like to mount a GPS on my console so that I can use it during the rainstorms. I'm not interested in depth sensors/fish finders...

    I am set on adding FMT to my skiff, but don't want to drop the scratch on a 12" screen. Is anyone running it on a 9" plotter and if so which one and how are you liking it for FMT? Thanks in advance guys

    I built a FS18 and am weighing my options for a sonar GPS combo. I fish lakes and rivers in the Midwest and want something with side imaging capabilities. Based on what I have heard so far I would say Garmin is out because their maps suck and there’s no way to add better charts. I’m looking...
