I have spent most of the winter talking to SIMRAD (and some Ray) about this (and other electronics) as I am considering upgrading all my electronics. No question this is the way to go but after a lot of discussions... I am going to wait one more year before I make the upgrade. There should be another rev coming out with a a lot of cool features.

The latest CHIRP Transducer for this ***Just*** came out More are coming. The new transducer to really exploit CHIRP is costly...like 2500 bucks, it is a big boy as well. It will work with current ones but from what I understand you really want the latest thing to get the full performance of CHIRP. This is really cool technology, it configures itself auto-magically to produce amazing definition. I think it really excels in deep water. You should be able to pick up tile fish on the bottom in 1000' . What is cool is you can select the bottom targets...not just zoom in... but focus the unit to look at just the bottom 50' with full screen resolution in 1000' of water. (At least that is what they were demonstrating)
