    Default Kevin Van Dam 859


    Who has this unit?
    Pros, cons?

    Are the fish symbols sharp?

    I just got the one with DI, GPS, from Bass Pro.

    I have a 859ci hd di non kvd. Just got the bugs worked out. Had really bad trolling motor interference. If you are running this on your trolling motor please use one of the trolling motor transducers. Had it out today for a short time after the fix and looks good. Will post some pics for you tomorrow.
    A bad day fishing is better then a good day at work. Unless u fish for a living

    I will be putting it on the transom.

    I got it for possible future ipilot link with my trolling motor, now I read where theres a glitch in that.

    I haven't installed it yet. I may take it back.
