Lowrance makes good products with quite good user interfaces. However,
they have pulled that exact same trick with (at least) two of their
street models, with no prior warning. Ever since Thales bought out
Lowrance, this has occurred.

class of owners, there is anything that can be done legally, but I do
know morally, Lowrance leaves a lot to be desired. Good business
people don't just sever support without a warning and support for at
least three years or so.
I do also know that I will tell everyone I know NOT to buy Lowrance
for their marine or other needs. Put doubt in their minds! Will
Lowrance be there when you need them???? I found out!
