Just received my bow mount for my 518vx. As i look at it, it looks like the hole for switch is too small. I havnt gotten inside and saw how switch is suppose to fit. My mount has one small square...

Great thanks. Ill try that.

I bet thats where Im messing up....I am exporting it using USR 5. So there is another choice in the drop down menu??

Screen is bigger but the 9 has same unit size as 10 and lots of waisted space. Just wondered if im losing alot purchasing the 7. I agree bigger is better just wanna make sure its not taking up...

I'm looking to purchase a Helix di gps for the front of my boat. I have a Helix 9 si gps on console and wondering which one should I choose - Helix 9 or 7?? I have looked at both units and the 9's...

I might be making a mistake when I export data.....How do you export data as GPX???

What do you mean when you say "you can change the file type you export as"????

Helix 9 si gps

I am trying to transfer all my waypoints to my new Helix 9. I watched how to video and the following is what I did. Am I doing something wrong????

1- I exported waypoints to sd card.
2-...

snodogg, you said you can save Lowrance waypoint to sd card and transfer to Humminbird?? I tried it last night and I must be doing something wrong. Here is how I did it:

1- I exported waypoints...

If I use HDS on 518 can I use total scan???

Yes, I have the HDS untis networked and will want Humminbird networked.

I wasn't really sure where to post this question so as a owner of two RANGER boats I figured this is the best place to post.

Here is my dilemma.....

I just purchased a 2002 518VX with a brand...

Just called BBT and spoke with Van. Great guy and very helpful. Thank you to all for suggestions!!!!

Who do I contact to order one????

Wouldnt the 521 be bigger upfront than 518???

Where do i get the panel?

Do you think a hds 5 gen 2 will fit in space that the Lowrance X135 is now? Also, will the wires for the X135 be compatible with new units??

Did Ranger make the panel??

I just purchased a 2002 518VX and have a question about the front deck. Currently, I have an old Lowrance unit
(5 in) with flush mount up front. What are my options to replacing the 5in unit??? ...

Thank you for all the responses. I was excited to get pics on site to show you the boat but for some reason I cannot upload pics. Again thank you all for your input!!!

Great, thank you for all the reviews!!!

Which unit will give me the best "bang" for my buck?

So the unit can be down and side imaging but might not be able to network???
