Lots of great info, thanks to all for their input. In reading the manuals many things become more clear. Garmin is a little more forthright in acknowledging that you need to pony up another 200 for a wifi module, and 300 for radio, Had to dig a little deeper in the Zeus to find that out. I am p

Andy, Joel is correct about the touch screen on the e7. When it works (which is most of the time), it’s great, including the zooming and shrinking with two fingers. But even normal daysailing in a good wind (not just sailing to Bermuda), my fingers were wet enough that I could not get a good

Bill - I'm thinking about going down that same path and interested in what you learn about B&G and Garmin chartplotters. Both have wireless capability with ipad control, which is very attractive. It'd be ideal to play with each for a while. My only experience with B&G is adding a Triton Display

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 everyth
