Exactly !
I've been on MANY boats with Raymarine units, and thats one problem I find with them, VERY slow processors compared to others !
The slow redraw can make navigating in unfamiliar waters tough! !
Also, using the functions like adding / editing waypoints, finding services (gas docks,tide information, dockage) ect... can be confusing compared to other units !
Raymarine makes great radar and the high definition fish finder is great also, but for a chartplotter, there are much better choices!

Strange I never had any issues with mine....lightning fast...

Thats why i went with another one, but color this time.

Anyway check on other boards too and get opinions. Garmin does a nice job too.

Things done at the last possible minute are done with the greatest possible information. Procrastination is, therefore, the most efficient means of doing things.
