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.

Kevin were did you get that transducer?? I don't see that as a option on there site, or is that what thy use??


I also have to figure out what I am going to use? I hate the idea of drilling for a thur hull, and if you shot thur then I can't use the water temp and stuff.

I am installing Trim Tabs this week (thur or Fri) and they might be in the way of a transom mount?

I purchased the transducer and unit from BOE Marine. I went with the transom mount just for the reason of water temp I figured the speed was more accurate off my GPS anyway something always seems to get stuck in the sensor opening on my Yamaha outboard. Also putting a big hole in the boat just dosen't seem right to me although I guess it is supposed to work better.

Stripadan I did have one problem with the unit kicking up at first but it was due to a stainless screw that was plugging the old hole. Once I took that out and plugged the hole, the right way with epoxy, then the problem went away.
