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)

I have 2 of them on the way for my boat. As far as I know they aren't even in stores yet.

Im pretty sure Garmin.com has them for sale. atleast you can add them to your cart.

Yep, that's where I bought mine from, not in stock yet. Supposed to be there next week I believe.

Do you know if there is a feature to record the side scan mapping?.. similar to structuremap overlay?

Another con for the 93SV compared to the HDS 10==== the display is smaller.
