Does anyone have either of these units and willing to provide feedback, pros/cons? Or possibly suggest another comparable product?

Right now I'm leaning towards the Humminbird, but I'm curious about the detail in the preloaded charts. Is it necessary to purchase the Navionics/Hotmaps charts?

Also, can anyone recommend a local dealer (SE Mass). I'd prefer to buy from someone local rather than the internet, but as far as I can see, none of the local stores can compete with the internet prices. I'm going to purchase within the next week.

I'd like to keep it around $600. Any feedback is appreciated.

Thanks,
Rich
