Looking to put one of the two CHIRP G2N on my bow and mount to my TM. I was really wanting the 10 since I have the Helix 10 SI G1 SI at my console and love how clear and bright it is.
Anyone have the Helix 9 up front and is there really $300 dollars worth of difference? Thanks in advance.
Don't have either one so this is just a opinion, the 9 would be fine for a bow unit UNLESS you might ever want to go to the 360. Then the larger screen would be invaluable. Would be a lot easier on the pocket up front than down the road with losing money on used unit sale and then buying new larger unit.
With all that money you got I'd get the biggest and best made. Lol
You must have me confused with someone else. Lol
Hope your doing well and catching lots of slabs.

I have yet to hear of anyone wishing they would have saved a few dollars with a smaller screen after using a larger screen ...

If you can swang it go with the gen 2 10 bigger is always better .you probably already know but check out Brian a bbg marine for good prices and great service .
My gosh what a bunch of enablers. I needed help getting talked out of the 10 but it looks like the winner!! Lol
You could go ahead and get the Solex 12 or 15!!
Redge, It would be hard to pay for one of those and a divorce lawyer plus child support on three kids. LOLQuote:

I see suspended bait balls and schools of fish easy enough in SI an DI although I have a hard time distinguishing between the two.
I have a 859DI unit at the bow.
I have a gen 1 9 DI on the bow. My opinion is it does fine. I am usually using it to vertical jig brush in 10 to 20 feet. A bigger screen would help with the gps and DI but I hope to designate more funds to upgrading my 899 SI at the console to a Helix 10 gen 2.
I would say the Helix 10. Great size screen, and better resolution (sharper picture/details) than the 9. I'm planning on switching over to Humminbird next year. That Helix 10 Mega is calling my name rotfl
I have the Helix 9 G2N mega chirp on the dash and the helix 10 at the helm. After being out 2 different times now I wish I would have went with the 10 on the dash also. More pixels easier to see more definition. Just my opinion.
