    Default Garmin 73 Quality


    A couple of weeks ago I was one of the people who descended on BPS and walked away with a new fish finder. I got the 73sv, not the 93, due to space mounting limitations. All but the transducer is hooked up now, but I can tell that this is an amazing unit. The quality is outstanding. Every screw and attachment I would need for transom or trolling motor mounts is included. Instructions are easy to understand and thorough. The whole system strikes me as an effort by Garmin to make a statement. Before I purchased a Garmin I thought I was a dedicated user of another brand; so this was a leap for me. I could not be happier.

    I bought the chirp 72 sv right before the Plus units came out. I've been very happy with it so I couldn't resist adding a Plus 93sv when the BPS sale started. Now I'm waiting on my dual mount from Cornfield Crappie.

    I work at BPS selling fish finders. The 73SV is what's on my own boat.

    Bought mine at your store, just before you came to work. Sorry I missed you. I read a post, before I purchased the Garmin, in which you said you had Garmins on your boat. That helped sell me, because I figured you selling them had to have confidence in them. Also there is a guy on the Walleye Central forum and the bass forum, named LWinches, who tests Garmins, live in NC, and gave the company really high marks. Glad I listened to y'all.
