Need advice/opinions on a new colour GPS/Chartplotter

Hi Guys,

 I bought a boat 2&1/2 years ago and got a "good deal" on a Navman 5&1/2 inch Colour GPS (demo model). While in the Rotto swim (not swimming) it reset itself and I lost all of my fishing spots (not a bad thing). I have been fishing (deckie of the year for 11 years lol) on a mates boat who was a member of the Deep Sea Drifters and most of them ran Lowrance GPS's. I am in the market for a new colour GPS/Chartplotter with a 8inch or more screen and would like to hear from anyone who could recommend or give their opinion good/bad on their GPS and the map which it runs.

 

Thanks.
