Which Graph to buy for console?

Dawgn · 03-16-11, 03:19 PM

I'm thinking of purchasing a new graph with GPS for my console. I'm thinking about an Eagle 480 but I don't know anything about them. Considering the price, is this a good unit? Any thoughts?

Thanks

It may not seem like it, but you are really asking a loaded question. If you are ever planning on expanding to add another GPS unit to the bow of your boat and would like to share waypoints, you would not be able to with this unit. You would need something along the lines of an HDS5 from Lowrance (not sure on the the Humminbird units). Otherwise if you just want a GPS/fish finder I would also take a look at Lowrance Elite 5 units.

I have not heard much from the Eagle units but do know they use older Lowrance technology. I would try to find a more up to date model.
