out-of-order fishfinder : want a new one

[Arzic Olivier]

Hi there !
My eagle fisfinder 160 went out of service after 2 long years of every week-end work !
The French distributor will charge me more than 300 $ to have it repaired (sob.. S.O.B. !!!).

As I'll be visiting RI soon (holiday, YES !!!!!), and checked the US prices on the net, I seriously think about replacing it with a new one.
I liked the fishmark 160 a lot, but it's now discontinued, and I'll probably upgrade to a 320 (discontinued too ?) : I want to stay in the $150 range, and found it around $170 at @@@@@@.com.

1 - Any advice about my choice ? Any experience with Garmin or Hummingbird Matrix or other stuff in that range ? I just want a fair product for fair money. General advice here, PM otherwise...

2 - Any local dealer on the forum with such a product on the close-out shelf ? Or any offer ? This is no go -down auction, so please PM, I'll PM back and I'll pay you a visit during my vacation !

Thanks to everybody for your help
Olivier
