does the helix sonar 2d not look a lot better then it did on the core units? I would have thought so with a faster processor as well as the different screen.

That's the best part of it! All but pulling the cables anyway. That 38 was the shiz for a few years. I'd love to have 1 to add to my boat just for the 2d. I can see fish in timber better on it that I...

I see where you're coming from. That's a lot of $ just for 2 inches of screen but we've all been paying it for years. :laugh:

If you're not wanting chirp, I'd just go with the helix 10 and save the $. Not that much difference in screen size.

I really don't know whether to buy 2 9's now or wait and see if they ever release a 9 chirp down the road or at least something with a little better sonar. The sonar pics of the 12 look great.

Santa had better be able to get 1 before Christmas or he's getting punched in the throat! :laugh:

This picture is worth 1000 words. This is where the chirp shines. Fishing timber the chirp will show fish you would have not seen without. Especially someone who hasn't spent hours and hours fishin...

Post up the tips & tricks and let everyone see that baby. I enjoyed getting a look at that BRIGHT screen. The resolution looked great too. I'm anxious to see the SI on it now.

Every time I look at the 360 images, I think I'm looking for a fetus for some reason :laugh:

Thanks Doug. All this HB stuff is new to me. Is the hdsi xducer worth the upgrade?

2 more questions. Are there any pics of what the basic mapping looks like on the new units? Also, what's the best transducer for SI/DI ? The hdsi?

That's kind of what I ws thinking. A more economical chirp version of the smaller 2 would've been nice though. Even the cheaper version chirp on the lowrance has great target seperation. Don't get me...

The newest helix units are exactly what I've been looking for for years. I made a thread in the lounge last year about the need for larger units without so much "stuff" on them that would be...
