You are correct Rickie NMEA onlyQuote:

Call Brian at BBG Marine, I've bought three units from him over the last few years and he has beat everyone's prices. Also, Lowrance has some rebates going on now.Quote:

You should definitely check out BBG Marine. I was just checking out the 7touch last weekend and it was $869.00 without a transducer. I think the one with the 2d ducer was about $50.00 more. With the rebates that Lowrance has right now you can get up to $300.00 off of touch units when pairing them with certain accessories.Quote:

I have both the Hds on the console and the Elite 7 on the Bow. I had the elite 7 first then upgraded to HDS7 touch and I belive the side scan is worth its weight in gold. I got mine from BBG marine last I checked the HDS came down to around 1200 I am pretty sure BBG would have the best deal. Also keep in mind the newer Elite 7 also have Chirp technology which I think cast a wider cone for a better picture.
