Graphs and winter

[Nowater2shallow]

i have the boat put up for the winter and was wondering if i should take the graphs in the house for the winter on the old boat some years i did some i did not. boat is inside but not heat in the barn

I put my graphs in a Pelican case and take in the house after every fishing trip.

It can't hurt just to bring them inside.

lowrance hds gen 2touch in the book says its fine to -20 f, i let it ride last year to -37 for a week, i just wasnt going to turn it on that cold.

I bring mine in the house, easy enough to do it.

I have a Humminbird Helix 7 in-dash that spends the winter in the boat when the boat is in storage ( 5 months) . It gets real cold here and it works fine in Spring.

I dont live in a freezing area but knowing i wouldnt be fishing again till early spring or so, i'd bring them in.....not sure how they are mounted but worst case is flush mounted and that would be may an hour of work to get them removed....just to easy and keep from having a headache in the spring time if they wouldnt happen to not work....

I have done both way's . The last few winter they just stayed on the boat . Don't way to broke the pins in the unit are the one's on the cable's.

Graphs outside on the lake all winter in -30 weather with no problems. Been using them for years on the ice

[duncankopprichardson]

I keep them on. Flush mounted at the dash is a pain. Sneak out for a few days each winter to fish the warm water discharges when its above freezing.

Mine stay on the boat in garage, never an issue
