Brent Bartman Posted February 7, 2015 Posted February 7, 2015 So I had my mind set on upgradeing sonar units to something with SI. after looking at about 500 SONAR screen shots. the SI and DI really help bring the picture together of the lake bottom. I was looking at dropping the money on a HDS 10. then I found the ECHOMAP 93SV by garmin Is anyone running this unit. I know its new but it seems sweet. Pro's for 93SV 1000 Dollar Price Difference One transducer Combo Unit Comes with Lakevu preloaded Cons for 93SV non networkable not alot of reviews What do you guys think. The question is should I mount it on the transom or on the trolling motor. My trolling motor is a Minn Kota Powerdrive V2 I worried about not being able to motor around and look at my graph if I trolling motor mount and Vice-a-Versa. I do plan on getting a second unit eventually but I can deciede to place my unit in the Bow or in the cockpit (reason to go HDS) Quote
Global Moderator Bluebasser86 Posted February 7, 2015 Global Moderator Posted February 7, 2015 I have 2 of them on the way for my boat. As far as I know they aren't even in stores yet. Quote
Brent Bartman Posted February 7, 2015 Author Posted February 7, 2015 Im pretty sure Garmin.com has them for sale. atleast you can add them to your cart. Quote
Global Moderator Bluebasser86 Posted February 8, 2015 Global Moderator Posted February 8, 2015 Yep, that's where I bought mine from, not in stock yet. Supposed to be there next week I believe. Quote
crankbank Posted February 19, 2015 Posted February 19, 2015 Do you know if there is a feature to record the side scan mapping?.. similar to structuremap overlay? Quote
