Clamdigger,
I would say that the speedometers and fishfinder speed sensors are not that accurate. For example I have seen nearly 50mph on mine while my gps read 40, thats a 10mph differance. I do think the gps is reading a hair slow, so actual speed is probably 42-43mph, but there is noway I was doing 50.....
