I've never used a Lowrance.I'm not familar with the model you're interested in. The wife and I both have Garmin's. Her's is a C330 and mine is a newer model the C530.We are very impressed with them. However they get confused when a new road isn't completed.I'm sure all of them will do the same.On the wife's modelthey updated the plug on the mounting bracket.Her's the wire was fraided from use. One email and Garmin sent a new revised bracket for it.They do stand behind their products.To me that's worth allot. Service after the sale.
