Why 2d ? I mark stuff motoring with my Humminbird 1199 on console set on side imaging and linked up with Helix . I have my Helix 10 transducer mounted on trolling motor . Set on side imaging set at about 40' and small part split with map . Zoom in as you get closer till down to 10' scale , you will see what was marked on down or left or right as you pass over mark . Hard to miss once you learn to use your electronics . All way points marked will show up on both if linked while both units on . No problem with accuracy . (1199 and rear transducer about 6' apart) (Helix and transducer on trolling motor about 2' apart )
