$500 rebate on Raymarine 70D

[DeanMac]

I still have not bought any electronics and that rebate sure makes me lean in that direction. It seems the market is just flooded with new technology. So much it gets confusing for a novice. I was trying to stay under $1000 and would be using the unit mainly inshore and for navigation.

I think the rebate runs until the end of July.

Also, $350 on the Raymarine 57D

Would this rebate sway any of you Garmin folks? If not what would be your go to unit?

Try Bethal, I have had good service with them and pricing is good. I have this unit and it's a good one. Color and contrast is great. Screen a tad small for old eyes though. Would go up to a 70 if i had the cash.

Thanks for the response and link, I was being to think no one had an opinion.

Looks like with the rebate I could get a 70D for only $118 more than a 57D.

Just placed my order, with Anchorexpress

A70D 6.4 inch combo, I ordered the unit with no charts and purchased the Navionics Platinum Plus-East Gulf

Total shipped to my door $1428.97 less rebate of $500 = $928.97

Thanks Macdaddy for the link, I check around a bunch and anchor beat bethel about $70, Bethel had the best price with silver charts, but I decided to upgrade for only a few dollars more.
