I purchased a new furuno combo this spring the 1870w with a thru the hull transducer It works great. 8 inch screen about 1600 for everything including a nav chip. I bought it through Gill Travis.

I'm hearing this Furuno name a lot lately. I had never heard of it til I my first ride on the Eyehunter.

Is the 1870 much different than the 585 ?

I am considering buying a new fish finder.I have a humminbird 798cidi and have had nothing but trouble. I am looking at the lorance HD 7 touch model. Has anyone had any experience with the Lorance.
