Does anybody run 2 fish finders up front. I have a HDS 5 up front and just bought a hook 7. Thought about using both up front. Does anyone else do this. If so could you post a pic.

Yes I did. Not sure if I liked the 2 7's or the 10 up front better honestly
Steven, are you still interested in my Bullet cut chopper prop?
Depends

Im fixing to throw a 360 on mine to take care of everything. One is enough for me id rather fish and be able to get to my switches and see out the front

The bulk and mess of all the wires, brackets and ducer stuff with 2 up front is too much for me. I'd rather have one big one that you can split screen and achieve the same goal. But saying that, I only have 1 HDS7 up front, and at the helm.

Ky Bullet, this is the best picture I could come up with from when I had 2 units on the front of my other boat. Its a 859ci HD DI kinda slant mounted, and a Helix 5 mounted flush with the front that I used for GPS only

2 units on the front of the Bullet gets cramped up there. Are you wanting one for down image and the other for side image? I put a Helix 12 up front with 360 on the troller and a dedicated downscan transducer. Both run at the same time on split screen which is the same amount of screen you will have with two units. I still have good access to all the switches and does not feel cluttered. The only way to know if you will like it is to try it out.

I totally agree with it being a little tight with 2 up there but I can't justify paying $2000+ dollars for one unit. I did the next best thing which is go with the best and biggest you can afford. I have them both mounted and it really doesn't seem that bad.

Yeah 2000 bucks is steep You already have the units so I can't blame you and you may enjoy having them both up there. Not sure how high off the deck yours is mounted but mine is on a raised mount and when running that big screen up front it's made my a$$ grab a hold of the seat a few times when it's catches wind wrong.

Went fishing this morning to try out the 2 graph setup. Absolutely no issues what so ever. Glad I did it.

I will eventually have 2 up front, but figured I would use bbt mount or precision sonar and stack them or side by side. Im trying to figure out how to mount 2 at the console on ram mounts.
let'em go let'em grow
