Are you using the unit for charting only? or did you have them also install the fish finder transducer? Looks good by the way. I like it.

Michael, I got the unit with the transducer, so it's installed as well... it's pretty neat to see all the stuff on the bottom of the water here...

On the hull... I will try to remember to get a pic of it tomorrow.

Are there smaller options. That is so big.

I recommend the g05 I got it from west marine with the skimmer transducer for $379.
Install looks factory. Took about 2 hrs to install.

I did see that one, even though the install looks much cleaner, I am a Garmin guy... so it was the choice I had to make... Very nice install there!

Now that we are in season, how has this been working for you? I have seen some mixed reviews with the simrad. Also could you post a pic of the transducer?

It’s been working great, no issues. It is intermetient on depth once I go past 15-20mph.
Over all I love it. I will say in rougher waters it’s hard to click the right spot on a touch screen. But that’s not too often.
I epoxied the transducer down in the bottom on The right side of the pump. If I were to do it again I’d probably put it next to the factory spot, I have seen people report readings at all speeds from that location.
