To confuse everyone even more the 620 with 600KW trans picks up bottom fish at 350 feet east of the bank no problem.

I have the Furuno 620 on my 21'CC for a year and a half now and have not regretted it one bit and would purchase it all over again. clear clean picture even in full sunlight. Many adjustments or you can let it run auto if you want. It holds bottom a WOT and thats with the Airmar trans mount transducer. Installation was easy did it myself. If you have anymore questions email me or PM and I'll answer them for you. Good prices can be had online with free shipping and no tax.

Any problems with the transducer? My buddy has a Raymarine C120 with the transom mount Airmar. New and factory installed July '06 on a 23' Pacific. He's had the bracket break twice (without hitting anything). Replacement's been covered by warranty but still sux to have to re-install. Last time we secured it with zip-ties while waiting for replacement. They've been working fine, but for the money it isn't right to have to do that.

I have a furuno with an upgraded transducer. I love it. If I were you go with a furuno digital one; 585 or the 620. Get a decent transducer and use it inthe non auto mode. Color is a must so you know what you are looking at. It is well worth the money. PM me with any questions.
