GWB,
Both the 295 and 1150 have the same T/R units so the basic performance will be similar. The 1150 has a higher resolution and brighter display, can be heave stabilized when connected to a Furuno sat compass and has a network port so is can be connected into a Navnet or Nobletec system. Also the 1150 has ACCU-FISH when using a CA50/200-1T or 12M transducer.
