I have one, and I'm sure there are others that have/use them. So ... I thought I'd start a thread on this unit. I'm not looking for comparisons of this unit vs other brands or models ... just THIS particular unit :p

What I'm looking for is any & all info on how this unit works for those that own/use it, settings used in various situations, tips & tricks utilized to maximize performance, etc.

I'll start by saying that, even though I do have mine mounted on my boat (bow/TM mount) ... I have only had the opportunity to put it to an "on the water" test, one time. (which is also one of the main reasons for this discussion thread ... so as to shorten the learning curve, in the operation of this unit). This is my first experience with a depthfinder unit other than the b/w 2d greyscale type units ... so, any information & experiences are welcome.

I do not have a SD card map, yet .... so I'm still dependant upon the internal (outline) lake maps that come with the unit. That's fine, for now ... but, I do welcome any information or discussion on the available map cards that work with this unit, as well as experiences from those that (like me) have yet to purchase one (&/or don't see the need for one).
