Nice. I have one myself, and a Rytech mount, that I'll be installing soon, hopefully it plays nice with the existing 3 & 1.

Airmar TM 150 and a Lowrance 3D, it's only money..

Two Blue Sea panels, 6 fuses each, 1 under the console, 1 in the bow. Typically close enough to wire the factory power wires directly in. 8 gauge to the battery from each(pos. & neg.), some use 6...

Great info, thanks.

Very interesting, first time I've heard that suggested. I installed 3 Ionic 50AH and a Noco Pro 4 X 10A late last year, only had 2 charge cycles. Happy with the set up, the Ionic's are great with the...

As an FYI, Apple 13 pro max, SOC off, no issues seeing the Bluetooth info myself, all 3 batteries.

Just installed a Ghost on an older Ranger 621. Set the boat on trailer level across the back and 88 degrees front to back. Floor measurement taken on the water.
Goal is to have the shaft as level as...

Remember seeing that comment re Lowrance and 16v caution, thought it was only an active target system concern. About to set up a new Lowrance system myself, a 16v house battery is an interesting...

Ran MG’s for the last 20 years, Lowrance since the X16.. unfortunate what’s happened with the latest tour pro, it was my first pick for a new TM. Not waiting any longer, picking up a 60” Ghost...

Been running Lowrance since the X16 paper graph.. Upgraded many times, never once due to a unit failure. Still buying Lowrance, as recently as last weekend. Some seriously bad luck there..

@Team Colibri Somehow missed your last post in this thread.. It seems the 3 Gen 3's and a new Live would be a viable option. Cheers.

Trying to decide whether or not to move 3--9" Gen 3's(would be updated to 18.2), a 3D and a TM150 over to a newer boat or start fresh, at a considerable expense here in Canada. All work fine with the...

If the Ghost was hooked to a Gen 3 at the bow, for sonar only, would a Live at the console connected via ethernet be able to control it?

I'll be watching for this. I've had an xi5 for around 5 years and it works great with Lowrance units. The issues you've mentioned are the only reason I haven't already picked up a ghost for a new...

Yes, that boat orientation feature alone is worth the price of admission.

Great info, thanks for sharing. Close to ordering the exact same batteries, still deciding on whether or not I should use the 125 as a cranking battery with an 03 250 Optimax. I've read a lot on this...

Good info, thanks.

Are these batteries available in Ontario, Canada? I suspect no from recent google searches.

Agree with your points on service center's. My current xi5 has been flawless and I've become very dependent on the remote functions as I'm not a fan of it's foot pedal control(being nice here..)....

Appreciate the input guys, leaning towards the Tour Pro if a 60" becomes available. New boat is an older Ranger 621VS which came with no electronics or trolling motor, exactly what I was looking for.

I was watching and waiting for a Tour Pro 60" version. With the board issues, it may be a long wait. Lowrance guy and I'm good with the xi5 gps integration and remote, mines been solid for about 5...

Can only speak to a Lowrance/Xi5 set up. I installed a 3 X 9"HDS3 set up 3- 4 years ago, completely independent of the boat wiring with new ethernet and nmea networks. Installed 3D, TM 150, and HDI...

Basically heading lock and cruise(speed) control. I get that this version is targeted to bass fisherman who are typically on the pedal all day. As a poster above mentioned, 60" shaft version targeted...

James's post a couple up is spot on. Going into the 5th year with a Xi5 and as great as the Ghost is, I would seriously miss the coarse lock and speed functions on the remote. I mainly fish walleye,...

Went with 2 - 9's, more real estate, control, ports, no regrets. More $ up front, potentially cheaper down the road when upgrading only 1 will get the latest tech on board.
