I have owned lots of Lowrance sonar/GPS. Used my dads humminbird last year for 1 day and like it lots more. 800 will get u a nice unit. Spend much less gets u a depth sounder. I highly recommend you do some research on how to tune your unit when you get it. You will get 100 x better performance compared to the auto settings and fish id all turned on. If your mostly fishing less than 30 ft the side scan would be a nice touch. Also get the wide angle transducer. Deep water (50+) narrow or dual angle transducer and down scan are the way to go.
