very displeased

 

I have used humminbird products for years. This was a lemon from the start. The cable are to small connection are very poor, not at all like the one I had before. After 2 weeks I took it back after the transducer quit totally. I bought a hds 8 lowrance. The customer support on the phone was good, but that does not fix a bad fishfinder,

Large screen

Acquires satellites slowly, Difficult menus, Inaccurate

Great Deal bought 2
