Does anyone else here use this unit? I just bought it because it was the only one in my budget that had GPS, but with my first use I am disappointed. The problem is the GPS at trolling speed. Really the biggest reason I needed GPS is because I like to troll, and of course I need to know my exact speed. The speed jumps around so much when below 3mph that it's just about useless for this purpose. I have a 20 year old Garmin GPS IV that I have used forever that is dead on. How can a new unit, even at a low pricepoint like this be so inaccurate? Just want to share my experiences. Everything else is great, a huge upgrade from my Piranha Max portable, the sonar is awesome, but it looks like I will still be buying double A batteries in bulk for my old Garmin for trolling purposes.
Does anyone with one of Humminbirds better units, maybe a 688ci HD DI, have some input on the GPS accuracy at trolling speeds? Don't figure I can return this to BPS as I installed it on my boat, but maybe I can sell it. It would be an awesome unit for someone that doesn't troll for coldwater species and is on a budget.
