We've used an IPAD and an IPHONE with Navionics software loaded and it works OK. We also have a Garmin Etrex that we use in the Kayak.

On the big lake we use a Standard Horizon and in SW Florida we use a Garmin 546S which also has the fish finder. But for portable use we use Navionics. The Navionics database is really good down in Florida, but a bit crude on Winni.
