Yes Bill, Nav aids appear in their respective colors as they would on a NOAA chart. Color is sweet.

If you're familiar with the waters you'll be boating, save the $$ and stick with the gps you've got, but when it's time to upgrade color is great option.

I think I will stay with the GPS I have now which is a Garmin GPS Map 180.
I am thinking of upgrading the FF from a SeaView 1200 to a color.
What do you guys think of this unit.....

I use a lowrance 335, chartplotter/fishfinder Color (same controls)
I love it,
Very easy to use.
You can download off the lowrance site a simulator for your compuer.
This will let you try it, and see how the interace is.
I think that's 90% of a unit. If it is hard to find information, you will not use it.

Color Fishfinder, for sure, I have the digital raymarine.
That lowrance looks good.
As for the CP I have mono and its just fine.
Also depends on the $$$ you want to spend.
JMHO good luck,
