My friend is looking for a fish finder for his 10 foot aluminum boat for
shallow to deep (200 feet) water fishing and would like something that can
be moved from his boat to friends boats. He's thinking less than $500, but
the closer to $0 the better. Any suggestions for products commonly
available in California?

Personal use?

No.

Have I seen others use them with success especially in small boats and
in ice fishing environments?

Yes.

Bottom Line makes a very good sonar and from what I've seen, these are
built the same - rugged and dependable.

These units, in particular in a small boat where space is at a
premium, are ideal.

Take it for what it's worth - you won't find anything better.

Thanks. It's always good to hear the reasoning behind recommendations.

Lowrance/Eagle has a line starting well below 100 dollars. I use one in
a canoe among other places.

See basspro.com or cabelas.com for a good selection.
