Thread: Garmin GT54 vs. GT56

I have the GT56 at the stern and the GT54 at the bow. The 56 is better but the GT54 isn’t bad either.

if you're interested in a GT54 I have a couple of new ones from having bought multiple head units that came with GT54 transducers. Send me a PM if you’re interested.

Thanks, but I have a GT54 from my current UHD 93SV. I'm actually looking at a new UHD2 93SV and it comes with a GT56 transducer and a significant price increase. I use the 93 for livescope on the bow so I didn't hook it up. I'm looking to upgrade my console unit and was planning to get another UHD unit which is no longer available. The UHD2 units are double the cost $600 v $1200. The UHD2's have a higher pixel count plus the GT56. I don't mind the extra cost...if I get something for it.
I've also been looking at the Lowrance Eagle 9 with the tripleshot transducer. My new boat came with an Eagle 5. It's just too small, I like running a split screen GPS/downscan and it's loke looking a lake map on a postage stamp. It's got to go.
