glad to hear you love the 998 I am getting mine hooked up Saturday
Just bought the 858 HD SI for the front of the boat, haven't had time to get it installed yet, but going to work on that this weekend, give Brian a call at BBG marine.. He's a good guy to deal with.
I have a 998 at console and a 858 HD di on tm...love the setup. I can share the waypoints between the two, and I love the di on tm. I get very good images with it. I was afraid of getting very "weird" SI while rotating tm, so I went this route. Got a lot more screen size for the money, and dedicated di. I posted a screenshot or two in the SI/di images forum of some images I have gotten with my 858. I used a transducer shield and saver to mount the di transducer to tm, love it. Quick, easy, and secure. Used a ram mount to raise it up a little, wish I would have raised it higher. If I can answer any specifics for you, just ask. But I highly recommend the 858 HD di for tm!
found the 858c di for 769.00 shipped. does any body know of a better deal
Is it the HD model ?
hd is 839.00 with 100.00 rebate so 739.00 shippedQuote:

I bought mine from David at shut up and fish. Pm him for a price. Good guy and can get you anything you need for the install too. I purchased mine at the first of the year, and his price was great. Give him a pm.
