I have a Garmin GPS map 76 handheld, lowrance hook 5, lowrance elite chirp 7, and a lowrance HDs 9 on my various boats. When I purchase your fishing edge files, will standard gpx files work on all 4 or do I need lowrance and garmin specific files? Thanks

what is the best brand to have the fish finder, Navigation and radar All in one screen? Is it best to have 1 big screen or 2 separate smaller screens? i'm thinking 1 16' rather than 2 12' screens is what i want.
