I find the Raymarine more intuitive to use. I can mostly figure it out by pushing buttons. I have to get out the manual for the B&G.
I'm just about to buy an e7d on advice from my favorite electronics guru. Another thing I like about it over the B&G is that it has wifi that means I can see everything on its screen and control it from my iPad. So the repeater plotter I will have at the nav station (or in my bunk) will be my iPad.
