Just my opinion.... but portable self contained units don't seem to last long. I finally broke down a while back and spent the money on a good fish finder. Color digital display and everything. It's got permanent mounts and I have not taken it off the yak in a couple of years. The finder still works awesome and I have had no problems. Just clean it every once in a while.

I can't get a baggie over mine very easily. However, it's a good unit and I have submerged it a few times and have not had any problems. Took the first wave all the way over my head a couple weekends ago and the finder worked great.
