I also have a 565 that began its time with me on a 16' stick steer boat that was a bit tight on space. I bought a puck TD and the HB switch to go from front to rear. Did the job very well for me and had a handheld GPS in a ram mount to take care of location. For the rig the setup was great. I then went to a 17'8" bass boat and took the unit with me to ride up front. Sold the switch(it was $75 new) and still have the skimmer TD just in case. I still like the unit and though I might change my Lowrance 527 for a 898 when my rich uncle gets out of the poor house, I have no plans for another unit up front til this one dies. 60 degree cone from the TD is a big difference over 20 degree which comes with the cheaper ones. I don't think that the 565 is still available but it was about $200 new. Money well spent.
