Have a search for previous threads, there's been a couple asking exactly the same question. We've got a JRC FF50 and i'd definately recommend it!

I am looking for a COLOUR sounder and need the same info.
Only i know it has been asked 100 times, and i cant find the threads.
I am too sh*t scared to post the same subject....LoL
I will keep tabs on this thread
Looks like the Furuno FCV 600L , Lowrance 107C or JRC

Has anyone tried a Navman any feedback????????????

Mark Skippa's got the 107cdf looked the goods the other day and he'd be more than happy, i'm sure, to let you check it out down the Goldie on the 11th. Thats of coures if you can wait till then... ;) There are a few that just brought the same sounders from the site just run a search in this section wasn't all that far back from memory..

Thanks Gents

It looks like i will be waiting for a while rather than settle for
second best.
Just had another family money crisis so the sounder will have to wait a while.
With the cost of some boat upgrades and trips lately i am starting to feel a bit guilty about the expenditure of my passion.

IS IT POSSIBLE TO REPAIR A LOWRANCE SOUNDER THE SCREEN IS LOOSE
ALTHOUGH IT MAKES ALL THE RIGHT NOISES

Cheers all

Mark,

Here's a pic of the Lowrance 107 in action off North Straddie recently. I've found it to be great little unit. When the finances are up to it again Wynnum marine were the cheapest in Brissy.

If your around on thew 11th I'd be happy to give you a demo.

There is quite a few of us who have just bought lowrance 107cdf units.
I am very happy with mine, best picture I have seen at full throttle.
Both on my tinnie and on my mates 17'cruise craft. Have run them over some of our grounds, and found things we had no idea where even there.
I'm very happy........Regards, Tony

G'Day Steven,

Squire, Squire and more Squire, not huge but certainly legal, ave was about 43cm, biggest 48cm. Picked up about 6 from memory over 2 drifts.

Wouldn't touch the squid, but got em on the Zoom baby bass ;D
Where there's a will there's a way.

Didn't post any pics, at the time there was some huge snapper being posted, mine woulda looked like babies compared to them. :-/

Cheers,
