Go with the Furuno or the Raymarine, Hate to say this but IMHO the Garmin sucks. If you fish deep water get a 1,000 watt unit. Get the transducer that the MFG recommends for the unit. Color is the only way to go!

The 620 is a 600 watt machine and won't work with the 1K transducer.
The 585 works with both 600 and 1K.
