Been a while but finally got a Surtees 495 on order. Trying to sort out the above but thought I would ask advice on the same. Launch in an estuary, mainly out and about the Tutukaka coast and hoping to do the odd run out to North Reef and as this is my last set up wanted something easy to read acurate and use. Been told the Garmin Go7 is a good package but I have very basic knowledge and simply find all the jargon challenging...spend including fitting hopefully around $1500.00

I have one of these (see below recently on the for sale thread, may still be available?) on a similar sized FC boat, and find it excellent to use. I'd never owned a boat before I got mine late last year, and liked the simplicity of this one as I'm not particularly technically minded - also, it fitted on the boat well. That's something to bear in mind, the different shapes of them.
