Close to purchasing a Garmin ECHOMAP Plus g3 94sv Fishfinder/Chartplotter Combo with GT51 Transducer and Bluechart G3 US Coastal Charts with 9" screen for a XMas gift to our 2000 Rosborough RF-246. This will replace an old SiTec chartplotter using C-Maps with a 5.5" screen. The processor in the SiTec is slow to show new images.
West Marine (https://www.westmarine.com/buy/garm...rt-g3-us-coastal-charts--19386614?recordNum=1) has a nice sale $700 vs $1,100 which is matched by GPS.com.
Has anyone purchased a new Garmin chartplotter recently and willing to share their thoughts? After checking websites/marina not seeing any bad news on Garmin. Curious how their WiFi app with Active Captain works including purchase/download of charts.
Appreciate your thoughts.
