Lowrance Elite 4x DSI or Garmin Echo 300c
Submitted by Redbucket on Wed, 2012-06-13 15:06
Looking at fishfinders around $300 and under.
Somehow looking on the internet I have ended up with 2 options
Whitworths have a "Lowrance Elite 4x DSI " at $299
BCF have a "Garmin Echo 300c" at $229
Has anyone actually used either of these and can tell me there thoughts on the units.
the DSI is the Downscan Imaging rather than the traditional 2d view that the garmin uses.
Its for an old stacer 4m runabout, mostly for ocean use, wont be going anywhere deeper than 20 - 30mtrs.
If these arent the way to go please offer suggestions.

Ive got a 300c.. bought it
Ive got a 300c.. bought it as a cheap sounder until I can get something better.. Its cheap, easy to operate, and seemed to do its job just fine at ffb. Only a small screen but really its a nice little sounder for a tinny or yak.
