Raymarine has some nice units but bang for the buck I like the Garmin 741xs. It has 99% of the bells and whistles of the 8200 series, has depth built in, comes with blue chart and inland lake ships, and is a usable size. I think they're normally available for around $1300.

I got the Garmin GPSMAP 620. All screen / touch screen. It is small yet decent sized screen. I ordered the optional flush mount kit so now I can pop it in and out of the offshore and the ski boat. Oddly, it actually has maps and works in the car too. It is definitely kind of big for that.

I have an lowrance HDS7 Touch flushmounted in my dash on my 25 Baja. Love it and also pulls all engine data to it.

Im looking at Raymarine Dragonfly 5. Five inch screen. Anyone have one? Is that screen too small for 65 -70 mph? I want something mounted to the boat. I dont want to use a cell phone.

NMEA2000 capable

With Simrad GO FREE app you can mirror and control the screen with a tablet or phone.
That might work out nice since I already have a tablet mounted

ICDPPL - Let me know how you like it once you've tried it.

After a back order it got delivered today.
I like it. I can mirror it and control it from my tablet and phone if i want thru a free app. Pretty cool.
Navigation is a significantly better than the Navionics app I was using . I kinda want to mount the transducer to advantage of the sonar/downscan.

I now have a Garmin 7607. It's pretty nice. Touch screen, links to Fusion head unit, and smartcraft (need to add Gateway).
