On a lot of the Humminbird Matrix Series you can add on a GPS for only $100.(I've got the Matrix 17) Do you think its worth it or would it be better to just go out and buy a whole nother GPS unit. If anybody has the add-on GPS I'd love to hear from them or if anybody has any comments.

Re: Add-on GPS

If you want the ability to see maps on your GPS (built in or bought), you will need a stand alone unit. The GPS capability of the matrix units below the 67, are basic units. You can see where you have been, create waypoints, navigate, etc. However, no map.

A thought. Get seperate items for each job. Then if a function dies you only send back 1 piece of equipment. Not 3 functions together.
