Anyone publishing these?

As in, $1000 chartplotters/fishfinders, six new units tested.

That sort of stuff.

Powerboat Reports. But they don't exist anymore.

I remember reading a test they did on combo units, and they seemed to like
the combination Furuno unit the most.

Personally, I prefer Furuno for bottom machines, and Garmin for
Chartplotters, but my electronics install guy who sells them all prefers
Raymarine.

My boat has a Furuno bottom machine, a Northstar chartplotter, a Simrad
radar, and a Simrad autopilot.

I'm not a big fan of the Northstar chartplotter, but it's a decent unit.
The autopilot sucks, and if I need to replace it, I'm getting a TR-1. The
linear feedback arm on the autopilot malfunctions in rough seas, and the
TR-1 doesn't use one.
