Location: Kodiak, AK | Insight is up to you, and depends on which bodies of water you fish. You can check the Lowrance website for what's covered. Personally, I prefer Navionics as when you zoom down to closer views it reverts back to the normal two tone view and you lose all the 3D imaging. So it's kinda cool to look at when zoomed out, but you lose it when zoomed in.
I had a huge mess of a hassle when trying to run a standard Hot Maps Premium (09) chip. Long story short, I had to upgrade to the Platinum Charts....not Platinum Hot Maps, the two-chip set of Marine Charts which was a pretty penny. I have an HDS8, so it may not be an issue with the 7's.
And no, you don't need the 4000. It's an add-on that gives you closer positioning and faster refresh rates. |
