I have followed some of the MKF FF threads and read several blogs regarding FFs. The best I can boil it all down to is:
1) Hummingbird has great customer service and technical support. Chartplotting and GPS not so much.
2) Lowannce has great chartplotting and GPS bur their technical and customer service leaves a lot to be desired.
3) Their doesn't seem to be anyone else who offers the features for the $ that these two do.
I'm looking at the Hummingbird 386 CI DI and the Lowrance elite 4 DSI. They appear to be comparable with the Hummingbird being about $50 more, on average. Do I have to make a choice between two less than ideal providers? Am I wrong in my assessment? Is there some aspect that will tip the scales that I have not considered?
Thanks,
Terry
