Looking at upgrading my GPS on our 328. We currently have an older outdated garmin but here is what I have it narrowed down to. Just wondering if anyone has an experience on either of these units, or any input about what you need and what you don't. I don't want to break the bank on this as I have a bunch of other things to do on the boat this off-season

Garmin you can get the latest maps hacked for free all over the net. Considering they cost hundreds of dollars each that's a big selling point towards the G.

Garmin creates a great product and I have heard their customer service exceeds that of their competitors. I have both auto and marine units and everyone I boat with has various Gamin models. I believe the 740 is on sale at West Marine as it is being discontinued and replaced with another model. I actually am debating upgrading my 546S to the 740 for a bigger screen as I now have more real estate to flush mount it on my helm.

Yep and than some!!

I also use it with the radar, overlaying the GPS & radar makes it so much easier!

Well pulled the trigger on a Standard Horizin CPN700i, with the optional 4D cartography. Got her power up at the house and this should give me something to play with this winter.
