I haven't seen that before. Looks interesting for sure. Personally, I'm a little leary though. I've had some bad experiences with Raymarine, so I'll step back and wait till it's been around for a while. ...Besides... $600 buys a lot of beer & bait in the cooler. But like I said, it most definetely looks cool.

speaking of beer... what are the laws like in the US. Here in Canada it's the same as if you were driving your car,,, and you will lose your drivers licence if you get caught. The police are on the water here and check for beer, boaters licence, ect... In order to consume you must have a head on your boat and not just a port a potty, must be a real head.

What the hell is a real head ?? AAA if its a holding unit without direct dumping into a controled waterway it's a aproved unit ? to many LABATTS !! will get you in trouble, any way I looked at this unit at the sportsman show in w.spfld last week it looks OK but I would give any new unit a few month's to see how people like it or not

Does the $600 include the transducer?...and is there(besides fasteners) anything else needed for installation and use?...I like that and I just got through raving about how much I like my Lowrance Elete 5
