best place to buy Furuno FC 620

[rando]

What the title says????
If a bloke had $2500-3000 to spend on a sounder what would be the best make and model in this price range.
Thanks in advance for your suggestions.

Ibought mine from northside marine with tranny for $1200 but maybe worthwhile sending ausfish member piscatorial pursuit a pm he has an online store in the states called Fish on marine and electronics i think i was looking on his site and it seemed to work out a little cheaper than here send him a p.m mate and see how you go i know furuno recognize u.s purchases here as far as warranty goes ..

Thanks guys
Can anyone give me some tips on high end sounders.
I,have posted this for a mate , His sounder died yesterday, not a very old unit either.

[bluefin59]

As har as high end sounders go you can buy them up to all sorts of levels i am fairly sure 3-4 kw units are available grand marlin would probably have those answers here appears to install top level equipment but as far as i know depending on space a fcv 585 furuno is probably top level in the rec fishing market it has more pixels than the 620 and is a true 1kw unit i beleive....

a 1kw ducer would be more than enuf for most rec fishos, the 585 Furuno, if it's anything near the 620 performance wise, will be prime equipment to have.
for $3000 u should b able to have get with trany fitted & installed.

You can pick up a FCV 620 for around $900 delivered from scuba steves and similar prices from other US dealers.

gidday gelsic really all any recreational fisherman neads is the 600 kw transducer unless they fish the shelfs. i have the furuno 585 with the 600 kw trannie picks up the bottem in 400 feet of water with out a problem was going to get the 1 kw but i dont think there is any need too. just my opinion.

cheers tassie JR

Should be able to get the FCV620 for $1,128 in Australia with the 50/200khz 600W triducerand I have been looking at a FCV585 with a 1kw transom mount transducer which should cost me $2,468 in Australia or if I chose to go OS about $1,800 with a bit of transport on top of that.
