The follow contour feature isnt available yet, but it is in the works.
One thing to look at is total cost here. The cost of this is FAR less than getting into an iPilot with iLink. Basically once you have the xi5 Pinpoint you download the latest lowrance SW update (must be Gen 2 or higher unit) and have the network backbone, thats it. The iPilot link is upwards of $700 on top of the terrova.
In theory the follow contour feature seems brilliant, but I think recording your own path and replaying it is far more useful. Both units do this. If youve ever noticed the map chips are really pretty good these days, but they are far from being 100% accurate. SOmething to consider.
