I have a 600fcv very simialr I am told. I had a yarn to a guy in barra jacks in rocky the other day. He said that the harder the material underneath the thinner the bottom line is. different stuff shows as differnet colours it is also possible to change the colour of the target you are seeking (eg fern ). Run it on 200 khz unless you are in really deep water.
