I have the Garmin 240 Blue FF, and am very happy with it. It is in your price range - I paid about 250, maybe a little less, I forget. I have a transom mount transducer and it also shows water temp and speed. It's a great unit - very accurate, and very user friendly.
Best fish/depth finder for $250-350???
No I am not looking for a Furuno color scope.... a good mid range unit with 240 or 360 vert/horiz. pixels.. speed and temp etc will do nicely.. I am leaning more toward Garmin... any body have a unit they love and would recommend??? .. newer Humminbirds any good??? Eagle? Lowarance? other?.... this is for a small boat so a massive unit with a bronze thru-hull is not in the cards... price I am willing to pay.. is is reasonable or am I a cheap date?? ... thanks in advance for the help.... bob

Bullet Bob,
The depth is very accurate, as is the temp. The speed between the FF and the GPS is off a bit, but it's close - the GPS being the more accurate. I get accurate depth readings with the unit at cruising speed with no problems. The only thing that is off a little bit is the speed. The GPS always shows a slower speed.
