Amazon.com Product Description
When seeing your targets clearly is the goal, the Garmin Fishfinder 140 marine GPS is the one tool you need on your next fishing expedition. With 240 vertical pixels on a four level grayscale display, you get better separation and contrast so you'll know exactly where you're most likely to make the perfect catch. Like all of the new Garmin fishfinders, the 140 features Ultrascroll for fast screen updates, which is ideal for speed-based applications. This system also has a minimal amount of buttons and offers intuitive operation, so you'll spend less time learning how to use the Fishfinder 140, and more time reaping the fishing rewards. You won't even have to leave the sonar screen to change settings, thanks to a convenient adjustment bar. Designed to give you fast and clear information when you need it, the Fishfinder 140's new sounder design features excellent shallow water performance, including a patented transom/trolling mount, dual-beam transducer with user-selectable narrow (14 degrees) or wide (45 degrees) views to help you see more fish in shallow water, while the automatic display re-scaling on range change means no more vertical lines obscuring your readings. For added convenience, the power down backup feature ensures that your settings will not be lost when the unit is turned off. The Fishfinder 140 offers additional features, including a 2X and 4X automatic and manual zoom, 600 foot depth, and technology that shows weak and strong returns simultaneously, that make it easy and fun to find the perfect catch. And thanks to alarms for fish size, shallow water, deep water, and low battery (so your Fishfinder will never suddenly run out of power without warning), you'll have an informed advantage that will pay off in better fish stories than ever before. What's in the Box
Fishfinder 140, transom mount transducer with integrated power cable, mounting bracket with tilt/swivel, and owner's manual.

 Great budget B&W fish finder October 17, 2008
Dean Bielanowski (Brisbane, Queensland Australia)
I purchased this a while back and was using it on my small boat for estuary fishing. I have since upgraded to a Garmin 300C color unit but I am having problems with getting a good reading from it. I am almost thinking of going back to the FF140! It has a nice large screen, good clarity and I had no trouble identifying features despite its grayscale screen. Menus were easy to operate and it simply worked very well. Its definitely one of the better budget B&W fish finders ont he market today in my opinion.
Better than expected June 15, 2008

I didn't expect much for the price I paid, but was pleasently surprised. The screen is very easy to read, and the automatic features actually work without being fine tuned. Far and away the nicest feature about this unit is the dual beam transducer. It has great accuracy not only under the boat, but off to the sides. Lastly the option of mounting the transducer to the trolling motor without having to buy an adapter was icing on the cake.

For the money, this fish finder works great. Installation is fairly simple. The lead wire could have a plug-in so as to be able to run through installed wire chases.
 NOT a GPS! Good fishfinder December 26, 2007

This is a very good fishfinder and depth indicator. But despite the name....IT HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH GPS!
This is just a fishfinder.
Needed portable.. July 16, 2007

Depth finder is excellent, easy to use, fine picture; temperature reads about 3 degrees low. Neeeded a portable, unfortunately didn't know Garmin offered this option until I saw it in the instructions! With a little improvisation and some leftover parts from my last depth finder, I made it portable. Generally very pleased with it, certainly price is right.

| Worthwhile Reading | Reduce Gas Costs by Driving More Efficiently with GPS
By Jeremy Lakota
Whether the current cost of gasoline is affordable or astronomical, providing yourself or someone you love the assistance of a car GPS unit helps in many ways. Especially as both a wantonly punctual driver and consumer of motor fuel, the cost of which fluctuates quite regularly into very expensive. Our driving habits can help offset this cost.
Even for motorists who are filling up their tanks just weekly, adding a GPS device to even common commutes can show most efficient routes. Those that can save a great deal of gas because they are driven most days. A couple miles can really add up over the course of a work week. With any route that focuses more on town or city roads instead of highways, the small loss of engine efficiency should be considered, too. Especially for trips over eighty miles.
When buying a car GPS, it is important to look for ease-of-use features like touch screen display and voice activation. These common, but not universal, features provide an overall better experience. A large number of GPS owners who have been using car GPS for several years are repurchasing their GPS device or upgrading their GPS experience with new devices from companies like Garmin, TomTom, Magellan, Mio, and SureShot (a golf GPS device!).
For travelers who travel a lot or go to new locations often, using the most fuel-efficient route over a year can balance out the cost of a new car GPS device. A lot of the popular units go for between $200 and $500. And, if you want the overall best experience, you can get top-of-the-line for a mere starting price of around $600. With one of these you can be the envy of all your friends that have car GPS, too. Click here to see some great car GPS devices available now.
