Good electronics can make a huge difference. They are all about the same nowadays. Just like production with anything there will be some units with problems. Go to a store and play around with different models see for yourself what you do and do not like.

Touchscreen is a pricey option right now. 2200 is a low number for humminbird if Im not mistaken. Lowrance has a 7 that is a cheaper option. Garmin has a last year model 70sv for 600ish but you have to buy a module for side/down imaging for around 500ish. Looks to be a very nice touchscreen unit. If you get a ram mount or something equivalent you could turn the unit around.

I think if I had 2000 grand I would get two units either a hds8 and hds7. Or a 998hd (999)and a 858hd (859). That way you wouldn't have to turn anything around. Link them together so they share waypoints.
