My old Eagle 480 has expired and its time to pick something new. I would like a decent unit with nav, SI and WIFI. I can't afford two units so my thoughts are to put a unit at the wheel and WIFI to a 10" tablet on the bow with a ram mount. Looking at the Lowrance TI7 or Simrad GO7 possibly.
The only issue I can think of is that I will always be fishing ahead of the transducer, I have a 19' bass boat. Or I could put another SI on the trolling motor with a switch? The switches and extra transducers are $$$ to me.
Just looking for some input, good idea, bad idea or completely new idea. Would like to stay in $800 range. I keep an eye on the sale forum, but the ones in my price range go quick.
Thanks
