I am looking at getting a new GPS/SONAR for my boat. I am looking at the Garmin 4208 set up. I don't do alot of river fishing. Mainly up here in the Puget Sound. Does anyone currently use a Garmin 4208? If not, what set up do you use? Pros/ Cons to it.
Thanks
Mike

I have the 4210 and really like it so far. About 1 year of ownership and no issues. Only complaint is that the temp sensor is off by 2 degrees.

I really like the chart plotter. Very good detail and easy to navigate between the screens/combo's.

Ive got it networked with radar and Fuel flow to the F250 Yamaha..

Are you using the Garmin fuel flow meter with the Yamaha and does the fuel flow show up on the 4210 display? I ask because some techs have told me the Garmin does not interface with the Yamaha outboards.
