Hi Ross, I think Garmin regulates those prices , and most places are pretty close, like Clammer said, make sure you can get service ( I know most people shun them but West marine has always done me solid and will do a price match), although Garmin will send a tech right to your boat if you buy the extended warrenty and their customer relation people are real good to deal with if you have questions,I have that very unit, I even bought the panoptix as an add on ( a huge waste of money IMHO) the side scan is the cats meow.. I was able to find lost lobster pots with it, I can see chains on the channel markers, mooring blocks etc... there is a learning curve, but it's a real nice unit, I love, the touch screen, I was Leary of it because of the open boat, at night and eel slime, both the sales rep at West, and the people from Garman assure me it would NOT be a problem, they were correct.. best thing I ever did, real easy to mark way points even with fish guts on your hands..

I bought it online from a shop in Dartmouth,,,, stopped by there today to make sure there really is a business there... :-) fishsmith 03-22-2021, 05:59 PM Another way to save is buying gift cards at the supermarket. I just bought an echomap 44cv from bass pro online, got the gift card from shaws and the rewards from that will end up being better than $100.

Local Westmarine holding one with my name on it. I don't see the difference of what the gt56 tranducer clarity being worth $400....

The 56 is recommended for another 100 bucks...... ;-) nightfighter 03-24-2021, 04:15 PM The 56 is recommended for another 100 bucks...... ;-) Link? Site? I don't see it at Westmarine:wave: I had seen that before it went out of stock at $1199. Not sure I could appreciate the difference and the 54 is going to give me the ultra side scan.

Thinking your unit didnt come with ducer... the 54 is more than we need.... ;-) Guppy 03-25-2021, 05:22 AM Side note... Had a chance to see Freaks setup last season,,, two lrg screens , SV on one chart on other,, something shows up way out to the side on screen, touch it and the spot shows up on the plotter.... Go Bucket! nightfighter 03-26-2021, 12:53 PM Got it. And WM matched the price at Bass Pro! Six 97! nightfighter 03-26-2021, 12:55 PM Ross .when I buy electronic I never look at the price
..SERVICE is what I can about ><> And I see your point, Mike. But if I am buying from Westmarine AND can get it for 500 bucks less......... Clammer 03-26-2021, 09:29 PM I understand , just hope it doesn,t brake
...in 45 years none of my electronics EVER went out of the shop for repairs
.you can,t put a price on that .when I go out .I want all my electronics all the time ><><> I depend on them so much .I won,t even dig if mY recorder isn,t working & ya don,t have to be a engineer to throw a rake to the bottom .just my opinion :cputin: vBulletin® v3.8.7, Copyright ©2000-2025, vBulletin Solutions, Inc.
