[RangerSam]

Wasn't ready to post yet but here it is... all I got to say is WOW - hope I can cancel my Lowrance order..

[RangerSam]

I would love to get cost and availability on a 7612 and 7610 xsv, Panoptix PS-30 down (mount in setback for z520 hull), Fusion Link and weather, and trolling motor ducer options. I've got to get some good pricing and slide this one by the BOSS... she is tough

If you get the approval please tell her to talk to my wife.

not sure my boat dealer is a Garmin guy... hopefully I can get this to work between Ranger and Garmin. According to research done at the Expo there are talks to get Garmin back on the install list at Ranger but right now that is not the case.
I'm calling Monday to speak with Ranger about this at the advice of Mr. Randy Hopper and I'm certain those folks will help me out... Everyone at the Expo was really great but I know who had the best looking electronics... hands down...

might have to order the boat with no electronics and order/install myself and was hoping to find the best source here...

I'd actually find a reputable installer instead of having the builder or dealer do it

I honestly don't know any in my area - I networked and installed my last rig.. worked out ok but I'm no pro... just want the best results...

if you want a installer u can contact Garmin as the have factory cert. installers. The bonus to this is they know the installatin practices approved by Garmin for best results.

if you want to bring the boat to Canada i can install for you, lol.....

I don't quite understand the title of this. I mean what's the deal with saying those anglers names first?

I think what he means is that instead of going to see his favorite anglers he ran right to the Garmin booth, lol...

[Defiant]

He would rather take pictures of the Garmins then the Anglers

Sorry for the ambiguity but to explain -- I am a non-recovering Tech-Junkie and even though I spoke with several of these fine fishermen, I had personally rather learn from the Garmin guru's and look at this impressive sonar than selfie with another man ---- Sorry just me... but to each his own...

if you are a larger screen user and can see the historical arches of returns you just motored over - this shot is similar to that EXCEPT with certain frequencies you can determine bottom hardness, apparently also other information, so to me it means smaller object might be indicated in one color while more dense larger objects in another. Schools of bait vs larger fish... at least that's what I took away from this... could be in error and I'm learning about this impressive tech for the first time too...

The Panoptix transducer capable of this type service is ~1500 bucks, but considering some high end Airmar stuff - that's not too bad.

[TroyBoy30]

i spent over 2 hours in the garmin booth getting demos for everything









still got all my pics with the guys though

[rob194]

I am really thinking about getting a 7612 to try out when they are released. I love their operating system also.

sent them an email and will now start shopping for my new Garmins.... I have officially canceled my Lowrance order and will soon have Panoptix (well at least one) --- this list I've put together is $$$ bucks for me, but I want this to be my "dream rig" and last boat. Might as well get it right....
I will give out suggestions for wife subliminal suggestion training for small $$$$ ... but please don't tell her that


Gotta shop for that best price --- yawl help a brother out here
