Anyone using the Helix 9 ?

[carlm01]

Ordered a new boat today and decided to put a helix 9 , Seems to have a few more options than my 5 and 7 had... Thanks

The 9 and 10 are quite new and not many installed yet.

They have an additional memory card reader and are linkable to other Ethernet capable units to share data and accessories.

IF you got the SI version and want sharper Imaging, you should exchange the included Compact SI transducer for the HDSI transducer. The unit has the additional 800 kHz Imaging capability.

It has the same sonar technologies that Humminbird has had for over 10 years.

The Helix 9 series replaces the 800 series and has a larger display.

ok decided to upgrade to the Helix 10 si/gps

[Wayne P.]

Good deal.   BIGGER is better.

The Helix 10 has about the same screen resolution as the ONIX 10.

Wayne does this come with the upgraded transducer ......

[Wayne P.]

The Helix 10 and 12 SI models have the standard HDSI transducer.

That is the one that is upgraded to with the Helix 5, 7, and 9 SI models.
