I personally love the ev200 by raymarine. I know a couple guys that have the simrad and they also like theirs. If you get the raymarine I would be more than happy to help you install it. I have done a few and they are very easy. Jim
Jim,
Do you have any insight in the S drive vs. R drive for I/Os? I know most people prefer the S Drive, but in the boat we're installing on I'm not sure we'll have the necessary clearance needed for it, the boat is an Amberjack and the sliding door only has about 8" of clearance. Just heard several horror stories about the R drives and wondering if anyone here has any insight into them, good or bad.
I know people that have both of them and have not had any problems so I would just go with the one that fits the best.
