Well lads almost finished with my shetland overhaul and its electronic buying time, I'm absolutely torn between a few choices and I'd love some input and advice!
I've found myself a beautiful Lowrance 5-Elite DSI which in essence is GPS/Fishfinder/DownImaging and for a serious price BUT it's U.S. so the GPS will basically be no good and cost me around 200 squids to get a worldwide base map and then another 200 if i want a more detailed localized mapping software. I also thought of getting the 5x-Elite which is essencially the same system but without the GPS and get a good GPS, Garmin or the like later on.
Then i discovered the Garmin Echomap 50s which is a GPS/fishfinder, no down imaging and no hard bottom reference in the fishfinder.
So I'm confused and lost at the same time, any help appreciated.
