    Garmin 840xs VS 94sv

    I already have a Striker 7sv for Chirp sonar, dv, and sv.

    I am looking for a unit for mapping only.

    The 94sv refurb unit can be had for $400.
    The 840 is a little more, $450.

    Which is the better unit and why?

    Maybe it's the 840 can network and the 94 can't ? I have the 1040xs and it's network.
