Got anything to share with us? The Yellowfin is a nice sidescan, very well suited for eg. wreck hunting.

Don't think camshaw has anything to gain by go for a Burton system.
I have had the ExHigh-res system from Borton, nice pics, but it cant reach nowhere near all the functions and the altering possibilities the Yellowfin has.

If I could choose betwen the Burton and the Yellowfin... There's no really choise, as the one is a REAL budget system, and the other is a fully functional sidescan system.
