Looking for a Lowrance GPS Chartplotter and/or Sonar system? Wondering what happened to the units already out there? Wondering what's coming? Wonder no more. Turtle Marine has answers.

Lowrance's new Winter 2008 LCX line features the same high-resolution screens and 1kW RMS sonar output of the older models. The design has been revamped, and the big difference is in the addition of Ethernet expansion ports so that you can easily hook up radar, video and satellite radio. New units also use the innovative LGC-3000 external GPS antenna, which improves accuracy and performance. In addition, the new "HD" units upgrade from 20GB to a 30GB hard drive with even more pre-loaded mapping detail for coastal and inland navigation in and around the U.S. and Hawaii. The latest additions are the Lowrance Broadband Sounder-1, which enhances sonar signals, and the Navico Expansion Port-1, which allows for multiple-screen and multiple-instrument systems.
There are also new GlobalMap 8200C, LCX-37C, and LCX-38C HD units, which feature 8.4" diagonal screens. The following chart lists all the major models:
