Garmin 740s GPS/Chartplotter
#1
Wondering if anyone has any feedback on this unit, I did a search but not too much there, I know it is an older model but seem to be some good deals on them. thanks

Great unit and Livorsi sells colored trim rings for them In addition to using it as a great chartplotter, I converted the digital info buss from my 525 EFIs to display all engine parameters on the 740. Here's link that shows it installed in my boat

I have one with G2 vision card in my Skater, nice unit at a good cost. I have a 5208 in my RIB and except for screen size I would say it is every bit as good. Bonesmalone are you using the smartcraft gateway? If so do you have tabs on 740 display?
