For a GPS/Chartplotter I have the Garmin 176C. I am tossing around the idea of a radar unit for the boat as well but am wondering if I really need one for St Clair River/lake, Detroit River and trips to PIB and Cedar Point. Boat/US has the JRC 1000 on sale for $700.00 and the JRC 1500 for $800.00. With coupons and such, I can knock off nearly another $100.00.
For boating our great lake, is one really needed?
Does anyone have one?
How often do you use it out here?
What is the feeling on the 1000 compaired to the 1500 besides the extra .5kw on the 1500?
