    Linking 93sv x 2

    Just ordered two 93SV's. Need to link them together to share waypoints. (if I mark on one unit, I want the waypoint to show up on both units).
    Anybody know the part number(s) of the cables or whatever I need to buy to do this?
    IF I have to start cutting and splicing cables, anybody know the exact procedure?

    And, both of these units are coming with "GT52HW-TM Transom Mount Transducers". This looks fine for transom, but, would rather have a "puck" style for the trolling motor. Is there anything available that fits that description?

    I guess I'm now part of the Garmin Family. (From what I understand, it's sort of Mafia like, shortened from Garmini to Garmin for obvious reasons....and other Garmin family members just send me money and stuff whether I need it or not) Yeah??
    I think the new secret color is "A-Rig"..........

    Here is the link to the data sharing cable:

    https://buy.garmin.com/en-US/US/p/pn/010-12234-06

    Simply connect blue to brown, brown to blue wires together on the unit power cables, and make sure data sharing is enabled on both units.

    The GT52 comes with the trolling motor mount, and it works really well. That is the xducer I run on the trolling motor. There is the GT8HW-IH, CHIRP, pod-style. It is a great xducer, but just 2D CHIRP only. I would stick with the GT52 (2D, Side, and ClearVu).

    Why do you think I went with Garmin? I'm not an idiot. $1500 and not fishing is cheaper than $2500 and not fishing. All my waypoints will be in the garage, in the driveway when I wash it, and a few in the shop parking lot. (gotta get the trailer tires warm every now and then...dryrot ya know)

    Leaves me with $1000 to spend on lures I'll never use.
    OR...
    PANOPTIX! (Just to see if I can make out the emblem on my tailgate)

    Are you talking about the power cable cluster?

    If so there may be extra wires that you just tape off.

    If you need to extend the brown and blue use 22 awg.

    My wife asks if I'm going to fish every day. I can't fish every day. Some days I might be sick.
