Cant speak to the Garmin as I havnt used one on the water and none of my friends has one. Reviews on them seem to be positive. For me, the panoptix seems like it would be neat for seeing musky follows on dark water.I am happy with my HDS9s on my boat. Havnt had good luck with HB. Why are you thinking of switching? Just curious.
Features that are available on the New EcoMaps series vs Lawrance comparable.
Like not wanting to share live mapping data was a big one.
I see it as a plus. Gives a huge head start on waters that I havnt fished or dont fish that often. Pay it forward if you will for fisherman. Much like all the great info shared on this board.
There is also realtime mapping on the navionics chips on the newer HDS units.
