Default Opinions pls - Re: Garmin 178C


Trying to help Santa out this year. Santa somehow has been getting it wrong over the past few years; underwear, ties, socks and dress shirts are no longer being accepted by this 'good boy'.

So, what'cha think of the Garmin 178C ? I have a very limited helm area ( 23' Tsunami ) and I think I want a combo unit to minimize helm clutter. Right now I have a Lowrance Fishfinder that works great. I could install this Garmin in that spot.

My criteria: The GPS must be excellent to help me in the fog and to find my fishing spots and the depth finder/FF has to be as good or better than my Lowrance or it's not worth it. Is the screen big enough for both functions ?

Or, do you have any suggestions ?

Thx.
