Reccomendation for Fish Finder/GPS combo

[Gerry Zagorski]

If space and cost are your main concerns, if buying new I would consider the Garmin GPS Map 541. A friend of mine has one, it works well and is easy to use.

Sells for around $600 and you can add a depth transducer for $200. Only issue is that it's a 5 inch screen so when you do a split screen with depth finder and map, things get pretty small.

Not sure how good the base maps that come pre installed in this unit are for the back bay, so you might also need to purchase an additional map cartridge to get the map detail you need.
