Current Setup at bow:
ULTREX US2 - not using the transducer
Gen3 HDS 12
Gen3 HDS 9
HDI transducer
Looking to upgrade to an HDS 12 LIVE on the bow of my boat, been running an HDI for some time and am fairly happy with the results. I am adding the livesight transducer on the trolling motor shaft and am debating adding in a 3-1 on the TM with a transducer saver bracket. Is the 3-1 worth it over the HDI? I never use side scan(nor could I) on the bow, just 2d and down imaging.
I also have the gen3 HDS 9 on the bow that I will use mainly for mapping, would I be able to display the 3-1 output on the gen3 9 if the 3-1 is connected to the HDS LIVE 12 and networked to the gen3 HDS 9?
My goal by making the adjustment is to get livesight and better clarity(if possible) for 2D/DI on the bow. If the new setup offers anything I am missing, please let me know!
Thanks in advance!
