Randy Shafer Posted April 2, 2019 Posted April 2, 2019 I’m thinking New Helix7 DI and SI on console and Helix5 with DI on trolling motor......what do you all think about this combo?? Quote
Global Moderator 12poundbass Posted April 7, 2019 Global Moderator Posted April 7, 2019 That’s exactly what I have on my boat. I purchased the boat that way, today was really the first time on the water with it. I also have a Garmin 73DV I bought before I bought the boat. I haven’t installed yet. That’s going up front. The Helix 5DI I haven’t decided what I’m doing with it. Quote
Russ E Posted April 7, 2019 Posted April 7, 2019 7 is fine for console. I had a helix 5 di on the bow. It was ok in 2d mode. Screen was too small in DI mode for me. I am standing most of the time. If you are sitting closer to the screen it might be ok. i replaced it with a helix 7 di. Much easier to see. Quote
Josh Gann Posted April 7, 2019 Posted April 7, 2019 Just put a helix 7 g2n chirp DI on my bow, and although I don't know how to use it to its full potential yet I couldn't be happier. Currently saving up for an SI unit for the console Quote
Shimano_1 Posted April 19, 2019 Posted April 19, 2019 I'd recommend 2 of the 7's or put the 5 on console. Ur closer to it than standing up front. They're great units I ran them on my boat last year. Quote
