Yeah, not something I would personally be interested in, however, I'm all for more competition in the industry as it helps keeps things innovative and competition helps keeps prices relatively lower (yeah I know all this stuff is a still $$$ lol).

Taiwan is the Republic of China, Mainland China is the Peoples Republic of China.

Thanks - zoomed right by me.

I bet HB's R&D team is working on a similar concept as we speak.

If I have an iPad with the App, I wonder if I could steal the signal from the other boats around me.

And all for only a bazzilion dollars plus all the options.

I also think Garmin's are made in Taiwan. As far as I know my Hummingbird is still made in Alabama.

Your comment made me go look.

According to Johnson Outdoors' web site, H-birds are still "designed, engineered, manufactured, and maintained in Eufala, Alabama." The only model series "outsourced" is the Piranha series. Of course, they could be importing certain parts, like circuit boards, from offshore suppliers. I'd be surprised if they didn't.

Johnson Outdoors' web site also says that Minn Kota trolling motors are also US-made.
