I didn't need that much of a unit to fish the Pearl River and to go up with Scott a few times a year. Traded that in for a 788ci combo, a 24 volt Minn Kota with ipilot, a 3 bank charger, a battery, and a bunch of crankbaits. I feel upgradeing everything else was worth it. I have a 17' Nitro with a 75 Merc on it.
