I have the 788 di unit and like it. If i had enough money i would have bought a side imaging unit. I really like having the built in gps for marking locations and the speed readout is very important. Overall cost was average 600 dollars or so. It does everything i need in one though. I have had less than a year though and already had to send in to have gps repaired on it. They fixed in a timely manner and have great tech support.
Guys I love my new 570 DI. Yesterday my buddy and I fished individual stumps and could see fish around them. The current had them so tight if you bumped a stump there usally was a fish on your line. A big tree suspended will show individual limbs. I can spot Bamboo as it looks like a ghost image and leaves appear real light image. Keep thinking of try'n to atempt a photo but unsure if glare wash it out?
Ditto on glare dawn soapy water works good
Nimrod just gona let you know when my wife freaks out because i buy a new Humming bird DI I am gona blame you!!!! LOL I have a low end HB Fish finder but wow that DI Looks Great. I have a hand held GPS so not gona get the combo.
I have transducers front and rear with switch hope that will still work. We just bought an old pontoon boat for spearfishing/scuba diving. wonder if i can xfer it between boats?
Nimrod, I think they made those(down image) finders to keep us from fishing. I still start fishing and find myself looking around for structure, or just see what is down there. I finally started changing settings, and still can't believe it's as good as some underwater camera's. I have to keep mine on broadband, and chart to get any fishing done.
Nimrod, glad to hear how much you like it. I've been eyeing a HB 587ciDI that's on sale at Cabela's for $500.
just got my elite 5-DSI. Anybody ever used one?
Well I wasn't thinking about upgrading. :Doh: But now that I've been reading all the good comments......
Well after getting over a little buyers remorse I put the new 898c si on my 18 ft camo xpress . The install was pretty simple , now I just need a few days away from work to try it out , so far in simulator mode it seems to be really awesome , I bet it will be worth every penny!!
