Advice for new sonar/radar/radio?
Hi all - I'm a novice boater and I'm fixing up an old 1977 22' Fiberform flybridge boat. Putting new motor / controls in now and looking to install all new electronics. I want something easy to use (because of the novice thing) but good new technology. What I know I want is a good fish finder, GPS (included in all fish finders these days?), radar to keep me safe in the fog, and a new VHF radio. I'd like to keep my total budget under $6k if possible. I was told Garmin is usually better for beginners, but I'm open to other brands.
What do you recommend based on my situation / needs? THANK YOU for any experienced advice you can give.
