RDJJ has one and posts on here!!
Got one more unit to buy and then a 360 transom mount, chompin at the bit but got to get the console unit first and move the 899 to the front and then get it, hopefully by the end of summer. Pondering not getting SI for the console being as I will have 360 at the transom but afraid I am may be giving up some clearer shots not having the SI, any thoughts Rickie?
You can use the 360 for just SI and DI without ......it stops rotating. Some of the images I have seen from the 360 SI are not as good as the SI from the HDSI transducer, which will have longer elements and therefore, a narrower beam, which results in better resolution.
I think Kosmo may have posted some SI images from the 360.
Most of the reports I've read on the forums is that guys are not even using their SI after they get the 360...Quote:

Conversely, the SI is advantageous in moving situations...
I guess your fishing style will dictate whether 360 replaces (or enhances) the SI...

Rickie, what measurements do you want? I have a AS 360 TM on my boat.
Thanks Rickie, gonna say I would want it to enhance and with that much spent should just do the SI when I can. The SI at 5 mph idling with the outboard will be good to scout with, slo trolling minners I really think the 360 should help as far as looking in front of the boat.Quote:

Thanks for your help rddJ...

Rickie, as soon as I get a little time I'll send it to you PM. I only have a set of dial calipers will that be OK?
A caliper measurement will be great...Quote:

Rickie I have a few more .... Cable from 360 is 8' long .. 3' cable to control head with connections .. let me know if you need more info.
The pix are fine...
Now I just need the diameter and length of the shaft....
Rickie
Rickie, picture (1) and (4) gives you all the info.
Take your beer goggles off and put your glasses on , its all on there. 1.125 - 1.128 x 21.250 not counting head
Duh...I am blind...(or maybe just rely too much on this small iphone screen)...Quote:

Hey rdjj...
Can you tell if the clamp attachment would remove from the 360 shaft without much trouble ...??
Rickie
Rickie, the 360 TM shaft just slides right out of the clamp on the shaft. When you take it out of the box the attachment for your TM is not assembled with the shaft of the 360. That clamp lets you adjust the depth of the 360 in the water. If you look at my pictures you well see I have a lot of the shaft out the top because I only need a 42" TM on my boat. dj
Thanks rdjj... I was hoping it was easily removed because the clamp is not going to be necessary with da'ducer apparatus® 360 ...Quote:

Thanks for all your help ...

Rickie you have the 360 daducer mount ready to sell? Send me a pm.
