Default GPS / Depth Finder / Fish Finder Combos

I'm sure this has been discussed before, but I can't find one.

First, is there such a unit with all three [GPS / Depth Finder / Fish Finder] in one unit? Trying to save some space on the console. Will have a back up hand-help GPS on board.

Any thoughts, opinions (I'm sure there's plenty) or suggestions?

Headed to Richmond Boat show this morning and hope to be movin' up soon. Currently have Sea Hunt Escape 175, looking to move to a 21'-23' W/A or CC...............just can't decide which.

Thanks,
RHL3

Thanks for the info.

tjburf,
thanks for the links. I like C-Series unit. i don't think the Garmin will allow the split/multi screen display.

GArmins 182 or the 188 can do split screen. If GPS is your primary need then a FF or just depth go Garmin. If FF is priamry go Furuno.

That said they're both better for salt or deeper water. If your going shallow, well Lowrance is better at depths less than 5 feet.

Has the Lowrance 335 hit the market yet? Saw it in their catalog but the store did'nt have them yet and did'nt know when they would get them in.Boaters world did'nt have them yet either. This was about 2 weeks ago.
