I wanted a sonar and gps unit with touchscreen, quick functionality, to be able to board a jetski, lake boat, ocean going sailboat, yacht, or any sort of vessel, and be able to go and know what is underneath me, how deep the water is, and navigate on the fly and go anywhere, anytime, on the water. I found what I wanted in Seabrook, New Hampshire, at a West Marine store where I thought I would be screwed over. It turns out if I had purchased the same unit on Amazon.com I would have paid $1000 US, more. I paid $499 with no taxes in New Hampshire. Amazon.com was $1585.83 plus shipping. So, for over $1000 less I will know if I have divers under the boat, a submarine, a wreck, how deep the water under me is, and where I can go from wherever I am. I have heard only good things about the SIMRAD GO7. I will now put it to the test out in weather and out as far as I can go in the ocean.
