| I'm rigging a new boat (to me) and it looks like online access to Humminbirds is all but impossible.
Does anyone know of a dealer that has Helix 9s or 10s in stock?
Thanks in advance for any suggestions.
Maybe I'll have to wait for Christmas LOL.

| Thanks everyone for the input and assistance. The boat has an 2018 Ulterra mounted with the Universal transducer. To my knowledge, this transducer will not provide DI or Mega DI to the control head. Am I wrong about that?

| I think it really depends on the specific unit, as they come with different transducers. Mine has Mega Down imaging, others have Mega Side imaging, and others come with US2. |

You're right about that but you'll either want to network it with your Helix at the console (if you have one) or run the transducer to the transom if you want SI or DI. SI is one of the most valuable tools in muskie fishing and you'll be missing out big time if you don't have it or learn to use it. DI is not very useful in my opinion. I usually always have a full screen dedicated to SI. You can and will see individual muskies off either side of the boat out to maybe 100 feet if you're good at it. |
