I mostly fish Lake Ontario In depths of 40 to 200 feet down and sometimes but rarely at 450 feet down
I currently use a Furuno 587 with a TM260 transducer and a Garmin UHD 64CV with a GT24UHD-TM Transducer. I am not really happy with this setup.
There just seem to be too many monitors on the dashboard and the Furuno does not "talk" to the Garmin which has the GPS. While the Garmin has too small a screen.
So I want to clean up the dash and have only one Fishfinder/GPS Monitor with a 1KW transducer with chirp capability, while not interfering with the Sea Hawk down temp and speed gauge which uses 70kh. I am thinking a 10 or 12 inch touch screen monitor ,probably but not definitely a Garmin because the auto pilot and the GPS are also Garmin but I get mixed up with all the different products on the market. I want my transducer to be high end, but I don't need a hookup to radar (I have no radar) or other super fancy equipment. I have a budget of give or take $2000.
What would you good people suggest?

There is a very good article on this very subject in the IN -Fisherman oct-nov issue. Seems that may be the new trend is to go to just one large unit instead of all the clutter of 2 or 3 units on your dash. On some of the new units your able to go to 4 split screen views of all the information you want and need. Customizing to your liking.
