I am thinking of upgrading my 4KWradar/10"chartplotter/fishfinder combo unit. It works fine and is in great shape (kept in the pilothouse). The reason for the upgrade is I would like the new broadband radar, sidescan and other features that are offered on today's new units.

Is it worth reselling a 2003 system ? Again, it works fine. I had it serviced this summer and asked this question to the tech and he said he would just use what you have until it breaks but I really want the newer technology on my boat and don't think it will break for a long time.

If I posted it here or eBay do you think it would be worth the effort? What is the value of these things?
