Location: Not far enough north! | I've been waiting for something like this for years but I never thought of the 360 viewing. I just wanted a transducer that faces forward so that you can see the structure in front of the boat. How many times on new pieces of structure have you run up on the rocks, weeds, or point you were working? The ability to see in front of the boat to me will just mean better boat control and you all know what that means. However... The unit is large and expensive and has to be used on certain graphs which I do not have so I will wait for all the bugs to be worked out and the price to go down. But I am glad to finally see a unit that will face the right direction ( the way the boat is going). Just wonder if it will work for trolling? Might save a few props |

| Any general ideas on how large a screen and how expensive this unit will be? |

Location: Kronenwetter, WI | You'll need an Ethernet-ready, Side Imaging-equipped Humminbird fishfinder. Compatible models include:
1198c SI Combo | 998c SI Combo | 898c SI Combo | 798ci HD SI Combo
Can be added on if you already own one of the above. Wish I did. |
