Reply With QuoteI have it. My only complaint is that the gps is slow. I use the Navionics HotMaps Premium. It takes it a few seconds to update your location and when you are idling up to a spot it can be frustrating.

I just bought a Hook 5 for my kayak. One reason I went with the Hook is that it is supposed to have a faster processor in addition to a few other features but I haven't had a chance to try it out yet. I'm hoping to tomorrow. However I believe the Elite's are marked down in price and may even have a rebate on them.

Are you sure it is the Elite 5x. I don't think anything with an X has GPS. I could be wrong............crappie1133Originally Posted by Mosquitopat

Excuse me boys...I was referring to the Elite 5x chirp in my original post which I know is just a fish finder (no GPS). Sorry if there was any confusion.

I think there's a little confusion here
1 Mosquitopat ask about an Elite 5x chirp, said nothing about GPS
2 jem270 was the one that said gps was slow
so it wasn't you mosquitopat it was the other poster jem270 that caused the confusion. Wonder which unit he has.
