Thank you, Chuck and Bob, it is invaluable to have advice from someone who knows the products to help me not make an expensive mistake.

So, if I go with the Helix 7s Basspro lists two versions of the G3N H7,
Humminbird Helix 7 CHIRP MEGA SI GPS G3N GPS Fishfinder/Chartplotter

and
Humminbird Helix 7 CHIRP MEGA DI GPS G3N GPS Fishfinder/Chartplotter

I assume the difference is the type of transducer included. There is a $200 difference in price.

My question is if the DI version will display the Side Imaging? If so, I would get a DI for the front and an SI for the console(along with an ethernet cable and 2 dongles) or do I need two SI versions?

I currently us a transducer on my trolling motor and would place the DI transducer there.

Thanks for you help
