which sounder?????????

[DALEPRICE]

going to the boat show on saturday to purchase the new sounder. still having last minute thoughts on which one to purchase. currently going for the furuno fcv 600l . have had good reports on this sounder but has anybody got or heard of anybody with a garmin. either the fishfinder 250c or the 320c . all colour sounders but just not sure which way to go.
any help with this topic would be very much appreciated.
thanks

This is a topic that comes up a lot and probly people are getting a bit tired of responding to it. The best advice I got to a similar question came from Banshee who has a very good reputation on this site for his expertise and experience (and sense of humour) to look very seriously at the Furuno 600L. The special price I got mine for has been extended to september by EMJAY

At $1249 with a temp transducer you really cant go past it. I guess if you can stretch your budget a little further, you could go to the more powerful 582L at $1729. Anyway the site is worth a look - there are other specials available. I still haven't been able to get mine out on the water - but feedback from members of my local fishing club is that the 600L is a seriously good machine.

FWIW
