I am going to use the X-15 until I use up all the paper and then get a new sonar unit. Graph paper is expensive and the newer chirp units are probably far superior to the X-15.

Paper machines are fine , many new features on current machines are state of the art but paper is simple and accurate , not too much of a learning curve like new product !
I ran my FM 22 D Furuno for 20 seasons 6" paper on 2 boats once paper ran out I replaced with updated model never felt I was outta the game especially with my plotters n GPS units or Loran A & later C back then ! FF coordinates your locations and let's u know ur on the fish , navigation is what gets there !
