Word is steer clear, way clear. Lots of issues. Got that from a few Pros who have or had it on their boat. One literally said.....Don’t buy it.

Over on BBC it seems a few were finally delivered this week. Maybe after being delayed for over a year they worked the bugs or supplier issues out.

Lowrance, I am so happy with mine. This is after having the Ultrex for a year and a half also.
