Did some more research and shortlisted the following items:
-Garmin EchoMAP plus 95sv (comes with gt52 transducer) $1500
-Simrad Go9 $1800 (includes totalscan transducer), will also consider 12" model
-Simrad NSS Evo 3 $2600, possibly will go with 12" model as well.
- Or Lowrance hds9 or hds 12 Carbon
Did some research on charts and would definitely prefer Navionics Platinum Charts, I guess it eliminates Garmin then?
Is there much difference between Simrad Go and NSS Evo models?
How it compares to Lowrance Carbon series?
