After battling for 20 minutes attempting to log on to the fishing.net.nz forums I give up...
Anyhow my aged raytheon fish finder has finally crapped out so looking for a replacement.
Boat is a 4M pontoon used for inshore blue cod fishing in up to 30M depth and trout trolling so really only looking for something that will give a depth reading and bottom profile, nothing fancy, doesn't even need a GPS.
was looking at something like this

but perhaps there are better options?
One feature I have read about that the cheapys don't do is give a decent bottom profile at speed, my old sounder is monochrome and basic as but it does seem to cope at speed. On occasions i have seen a peak come up on the sounder when cruising over fairly featureless terrain and it has turned out to be to be a good mark so I can see the value in this
