    Anyone have hands on expierience with Furuno 600L or 620

    I'm considering upgrading to one of the two. (Currently I rely on the FF on my Garmin 545) I understand the biggest difference in the 2 is probably the RMS. Is the $600 price difference just because the 620 is newer or is there a noticeable difference between the two?

    What do you use to protect non-skid?

    After cleaning the non-skid and other work areas what do you use to protect these surfaces? I know you don't want to wax them but is there anything you guys can recommend to protect it from sun or at least prevent stains and make clean-up after a good days fishing easier? TIA

    I've nver done a gelcoat repair and I have this to tackle!
