gp1871f vs fcv 628

[pespinar]

Dear sirs,

I am thinking of buying a fish finder, and I like the gp1871f and the fcv 628. My question is if both have the same capabilities in terms of fish finding, as both have a similar price, but the gp1871f has many other features, such as gps/plotter, interfaces for radar and autopilot, wifi, etc.

Thanks in advance
Pablo

The GP1871F can support single freq CHIRP transducers and 1KW transducers when the FCV628 is fixed 50/200 at 600w. It depends on if you are seeking a standalone sounder or a chart plotter with sounder functionality. If you need the other functions offer by the Gp1871F, it would seem to be the better value depending on the transducer you are using.
