I know that vexilar has several models that are upgrades from that. Just go to vexilar.com. The've got FL-12, FL-18, Fl-20's. I'm not sure if there are more than that, but reading the specs on the newer ones I would think that they would be much better than the fl-8. However I've been impressed with the entry level ones when I've played with them.

You might be thinking about the Showdown Digital Ice unit. IMO much better than the old circular Flasher style. Digital means no moving parts so longevity is much better.

Normally they run around $270.00 but the off season is the time to buy I found them as low as $199.97

Here's a site that sells a few different fish finders. I thought it might help.
fishfindersdirect.com/icefinders.

I have a Marcum and I like it. Seems like most of the flasher type fish finders I have seen or used were pretty similar.
