    Default Humminbird on my bow


    Looking to purchase a HB for the bow of my boat and mount it on the TM. Need some suggestions on what model I should go with. I have a new 999 mounted near the drivers seat. Any suggestions ?

    any model that would link to the 999 would be good. I've got a 798 linked to a 998 they share info.

    859 DI or 959DI would be a really nice unit on the bow.

    The bigger the better, especially at the bow where you are standing further away. I'd go with another 999. I have two 998s, bow and console, connected with Ethernet. Great setup. Only thing better would be two 1198's/1199's or two Onix units

    Get the biggest you can afford. I have an 1159 on the bow and a 1198 on the console.
