Reading between your lines here Moose........but I have heard similar things about a certain brand not being as co-operative so to speak as other BranHDS......at looking after their distributers.......so the grape vine tells me anyway.

It was a club night and they gave me special prices on that night.

hmmmmm somewhat. it will be handy having the new echomap with sidescan built in. but in some respects your going down a notch. losing your precious and delicious touch screen. and going down from 10htz to 5 hrtz gps.
black boxes are often somewhat quicker , "dedicated processing, power etc" but nothing to be to amazed by ..

hmm......decisions.

firstly noticed in that vid the 751 has auto hide menu bar, about time so does the Garmin 70dv have that?

Decisions yep but what im wondering of the current black box is whether it will still be a better option as against the new Garmins coming out in a couple of months, as its chirp DV/SC , are the new all in ones chirp side scan/downview or like the Garmin 70DV….which i would probably use as just a Gps down the track and get a dedicated sounder unit…
