Garmin Unit

Bumping it up to the Garmin echoMAP chirp 94sv .....
Not many of them left since the newer model just came out -only difference being ability to share data with cell phone etc that I don’t need......especially for twice the price !!

Has side scan too so will report back following installation and fishing tests

installed one this year. I like it. sidevu is awesome when finding & fishing wrecks.

Completed rigging it up, moved the previous STD Horizion 190 left of the compass, and eliminated the old Garmin fish finder unit..

So now it***8217;s 2 plotters between the two plus all the fish finder / sonar power of the new Garmin sv 94 echo / chirp . Like that the new unit detached easily.
Will take a pic when the rain stops and I take off the cover to fish because my V doesnt get wet unless its in the water ! :)

Skunk, how deep is the side scan effective. Got a buddy with the simrad go7, his only good 60-70 ft or less.

BG, I***8217;ve got a 4 year old furuno that i***8217;m Thinking of getting rid if and grabbing one on those, looking forward to a hands on review

BG are you on an ipad , don t know why it does ***8216; when i type apostrophes .

Phatt - The GPS Store bought up the remaining new / left over Garmin Echo Map Chirp 94 SV***8217;s from Garmin and is selling them for approx $ 629 incl the proper ducer.

This is $400 - $600 less than the new model - exactly the same except for some info sharing features I don***8217;t need, so I bought one quick !

GPS Store found on line

Not sure which transducer this is. Local wm has 3 in stock

WestMarine told me they only have a few old demo models left - even in stores that show a couple left . We called about 5 stores and confirmed but if you can find a new - in original factory box great, otherwise the GPS store
