Is this a reasonable price and are they a good unit
Any thoughts would be appreciated

Garmin a generally a pretty good brand.
Does it come with all cables and transducer?
How much of the warranty is left to run?
Supposedly on special at $1800 here ... http://www.marineelectricalsydney.com.au/marine-electrical-product-details.asp?prodID=168
Johnny Appleseed has the later model for $1736 ... www.ja-gps.com.au/Garmin/gpsmap-751/
Not sure what comes with it or what the warranty situation is
It appears that it is no longer a current model with Garmin
Regards Don
Be careful on gumtree I'm still waiting for a camrea after 4 weeks apparently she sent it last Friday week still Have not received the receipt or the tracking number! Mind you I sold my yacht on gumtree. make sure you can meet in person not sure of legal follow up at this stage!
I wouldn't hesitate a minute.
Should come with transduce.
4 years ago I paied $1500 for Garmin 550s.
Perfect unit.
At BCF or Whitworths check out the Lowrance Elite 7 plotter/sounder for $799. They are not touch screen (which is good), are menu driven and come with charts for Aus and NZ.
Than Lowrance as Cisko suggests would me my next option.
me as a 99% singlehanded can't live without it..hi..hi
mine comes with transduce, still in the box, after 4 years
one day I hope, I will install it

Have to say that Lowrance as you mention HG is an excellent unit.
Guy next to my boat, bought one and I teach him to use it.
It's really good and for the price..I am gealous .
The interesting thing about the Huon is here at Port Huon and downstream of here there is probably 20 meters of water under the keel unless you are close to each river bank where as about 400 meters upstream if you dont stay in the narrow partially marked channel you run the risk of running aground
In the 1970's when they were still exporting apples overseas they used to have ships like these on either side of the jetty
