This is a very common issue or question. The northern guys have a lowrance rep that holds seminars every year on how to operate and adjust it. Wish we had a local rep that does this down here. I sure could use it.

The surf launches are not so bad it's the rolling it on the landings. I found out on one of my older Elite 4 FF. So now I make sure using my HDS5 that it is turned off on launching and landings. If the unit is powered on and any amount of moisture gets in through the memory card slot, the unit is toast. Also always make sure the sockets and harness connectors have plenty of dielectric grease in them.
