Want to go to a 4 blade prop. Merc 175XSPro. I usually run full tank 2 people and lots of gear. When new I could easily hit 65mph. Now after a few years and a lot more gear I can't get past 58....
I have a hole shot plate also. Is that the bracket that comes with the Garmin? Looks like you mounted it on the right underside of your jackplate.
I want a Garmin 93SV CHIRP for my console. I've been holding out due to all the issues of rooster tails and interference. I've seen some people mount the transducer under the hole shot plate an the...
I had to buy the passenger console when I purchased my boat. It was installed by the dealer. While waxing stuff the other day my wife noticed 2 horizontal cracks about 4 inches long under the grab...
I'll give it a shot nex time out in the delta. I did hear that you have to be going about 2mph or faster for the side imaging to work. Remember, I'm new to all this technology. I'm just trying to...
Tim is a great person to deal with. He has sent me parts and has not charged me until they arrive. Who does that? Total trust in the man. He needs a raise. I have never dealt with any company...
A little over my head...... Only have a micro sd card I bought for the Bluewater G2. Plus, I only have one 93SV for the bow so far.
I don't have a smart phone, so I would have to take a camera and do it that way. The other image forum has all kind of images of the 93SV.
And another reason is that Lowrance has terrible customer service. I think they have gotten kind of snooty, and a little too big for their britches!
When my Elite 5 quit working I decided to purchase a Garmin 93sv chirp. Found out thru my boat manufacturer that the Lowrance is warranted for 3 years rather than one since it was a package deal...
Finally got the Garmin out on the water. Within 15 minutes I fell in love. No more Lowrance for me. This depth finder is awesome! I am no pro with these things, but the 2D sonar and the DV are...
I have had 4 Lowrance on the last two boats. Had two of them go bad in two years. No more Lowrance for me. I looked at the Garmin, and they looked nice. I like their customer service better so...
I know the tide views and what it all means, but the other side of the chart for currents is a complete mystery. Anybody have an explanation of what the heck I'm looking at. Also the numbers are...
93sv CHIRP IS US with LakeVu maps. The 94sv is ocean maps US loaded.
Thanks for that info. Have you ever had yours draw your battery way down while on your trolling motor? Sometimes we will be on our trolling motor for 2 hours at a time. I would hate to have my...
Wonder how much power this new depth finder uses versus my old Lowrance Elite 5x? Just curious. I figure the Side scan and down scan will use more wattage than the standard sonar with the map view....
That's what I want. Looks good to me.
Talked with Garmin this morning. Sounds like I need the G2 micro card for the tides in the California Delta. Has anybody installed this card in their EchoMap depth finder? Any feedback is...
Thanks. I finally talked to Garmin and they told me the same. I think I can get that micro chip on Amazon a lot cheaper.
Just got my new Garmin installed today. Was playing around with it when I got home and I have a couple of questions. I live near the California Delta at Stocton. I was looking on the map view and...
So if I just want down scan, can I get by with a transducer on my trolling motor? This sure is getting confusing. Garmin doesn't have a 9 in. With only downs scan. I would have to go with the...
So I looked at the Garmin 9inch today. That side scan won't work on your trolling motor, correct? I was told that the sides can won't work on a in- hull transducer.
What about brand? The size is a good point. I'll get a 9 up front then. How have the Hook Lowrance? I liked the screen clarity on the 7 Ray Marine, but I worry that there won't be many people...
Can I get updates with my Mac or do I have to use a PC?
Don't know if this is where to ask this, but I'm a Phoenix owner. I bough mine in 2014. Package deal with a Lowrance Elite 5x up front and an Elite 5 at the console. My 5 x has been acting up, so...
