I've had a old humminbird 400 series for over a year with no problems yet. I'd like to hear the input of those who have the color models with gps but I find that mine doesn't drain batteries like I've heard they do and the sensitivity is all I need for finding bait, depth and bottom contour and I meter fish very well. I am not much of a bells and whistles type and this FF has more features than I will probably need anyway. I have a handheld GPS which works fine and I can take it out in the field to my favorite hiking and hunting spots. The newer, nicer ones have software for maps and all kinds of neat stuff so I don't see limiting my GPS use strictly to on the water in a FF as a benefit.
