Garmin GPSMAP 498 FF - Any Kayak User Reviews?? - Kayak Fishing Adventures on Big Water’s Edge

I'm not familiar with that model, I have the Garmin 178C, been very happy with it. Be sure to go with the internal gps antenna if it has that option, one less cable/connector. I bought at West Marine because I've received great service on warranty stuff there, definitely buy the extended warranty, mounted on a kayak is an extreme test of design/reliability.
