Anyway I am thinking about getting a Bottom Line portable unit and have never used this brand or any portable model. If any of you have experience with this brand or any other please give me you take.
I use to use Bottom Line's side finders which also shows the bottom. It wasn't the portable type and it didn't show much detail. It would give you the basic display and water temp. If you are use to a good unit on the sonsole, I think you will be disappointed with that unit. But again, mine were the old units and they may have improved since then. Just something to consider.
