Garmin 300C Fishfinder
Posted November 15, 2011 by Monty
The Garmin Fishfinder 300C is a great piece of kit. Great value for money this unit is in the mid range price bracket. Similar to previous Garmin fishfinders such as the 90, 140, and the 160, the 300c has been well designed and its simplicity is one of its key selling points. The 300C is more or less ready to go out of the box, it is extremely easy to use and can be used by beginners with very little configuration.
