Just got off the phone with Lowrance.

In order to move one unit from the console to the bow, I would either need an extension cable for the traditional transducer and lay it up in the bow and coil it back up when back at the console, or if I had the wires buried, I would need a switchbox to "T" the signal from the traditional sonar. The ethernet network would be the same as if I had 2 units using structure scan.

So if I went 7 & 5, I wouldn't have to monkey around with an extra switch or extra cables in the way.

I'm just having a hard time justifying an extra $600 over the 7 to go to an 8. But many others keep saying to go with an 8.

Is an 8 really $600 better than the 7?
