I think Garmin caught on, but I had earlier units and everything necessary
was an accessory. I suspect, since then, Garmin has had to compete with
Lowrance's offerings.

I like the Lowrance 500 (although I have the 600c and like it for the
terrain mapping, but the thing I miss from my 500 is that the display was
so much brighter than the 600c). Best thing about Lowrance is that
everything you NEED is not an 'accessory' to buy, like with Garmin.
What do you mean??
My 296 came in big old box full of accessories of which I only use the
carry case and the yoke mount.
