I have had the 718 for a year and a half now with no real trouble,
gooped transducer in the hull of the Outback no trouble, except every once in a while the temp goes wacky but I believe it was a corroded pin which I have taken care of.
I am going to add the gps to it soon, its ordered so I would like to know if any of you have added this and do you have any insight or tips ....
You will like the 718 is alot of meter for the money...see ya
