Does anyone have direct experience with the Raymarine G-series?

I have had Raymarine on past boats, and out of inertia (and simply because I knew how to use them) I had the E-series on my most recent. I have had great service from Raymarine in the past but I am not without some complaints about the product, particularly on the refresh rate, and the OK-only radar.

The G-series claims to have addressed a lot of issues, and seems to offer the latest radar features with their super HD scanners (like dual simultaneous range) that Furuno has with the their 3D. I've also heard about some bugginess around the new Furuno product.

So while it would be great to leverage my experience with the Raymarine product line-up and not go through any learning curve, I would like to hear from folks who have had experience with Raymarine G-series... and also those who think I could definitely do much better!

Thanks!
