Couldn't pass up the savings and spent $160 more than what I was planning on spending.

The only thing I would add is that Cabelas add for the $759 HB ..is for the 798ci SI Combo...NOT the 798ci HD SI Combo...Quote:

It is still possible to connect this 798ci SI Combo to another HB SI unit with the optional "Interlink" module....
$759 is still a good price...if you don't need ethernet capability....

i have the Humingbird 597HD DI. Great imaging. Its like looking at a photo of whats under the boat. i love it.
Glad to hear the reports on the Hummingbird 597. I just ordered the 597 ci HD DI Combo GPS. Probably need to find some 10 year old to educate me on how to use it.
I still don't know what ethernet is or means or does.
In the past, 2 HB units had to be connected using an "Interlink" module...to be able to share info between the 2 units...Quote:
