My only complaint is the unit loads the standard mapping maps so much slower than the Lowrance and Simrad units I had. The processor is not as good.


Do you mean the initial loading of the map or the map moving while you are moving?

Loading while you zoom. I called standard mapping, and they said they just recently partnered with Garmin. Any model except for the latest and greatest will have a slower processor than us generally required for their maps. He did tell me to try and update the software, which could help. I’m going to have the boat on hand this weekend and will try that. I like everything else about the unit however. It’s a Garmin Echomap Plus 93sv. Got it at Cabela’s for $599. Which was $400 off
