Garmin Echomap UHD 94sv It's good but I haven't really been able to utilize the sidescan as yet. I got WM to price match Cabela"s $699 price WITH transducer last year. I guess there is an upgraded ducer this year, but would I really benefit from it for my needs?? Friend was shopping for the whoile spring and best deal we saw was $799.
I had a 7" Raymarine and hated it. Then a Raymarine rep treated me like a dog when I asked some questions at RIISA one year. Sold that unit not long afterward. Some folks like Ford over Chevy. I really prefer Garmin.

Ray, go to tacklewebs.com and you will see all sorts of attachment and size options. Bound to find one that could make things work better. Our old boats could use some modern ideas that weren't around back then. I think the velcro option might be the key to add some more and store them, loaded, when getting off boat.

2:58 … ? You headed out or just coming back ? :-)
It wasn’t original to the boat,,, larger, too big for my liking…
Took it out once to access under the main hatch and never put it back…
Really like having all the deck space especially pullin pots…
Plus, after repairing the soft spots where it mounted I couldn’t force myself to drill new holes in the deck….. :-)….. |
