Default Wanted: VHF Radio and Color Fish Finder

My new boat doesn't have a VHF radio on it. It does have a cheep Humminbird on it but I will be needing a good color scope for fishing the NC costal waters.

Anybody have any spares they need to sell?

I had a Sitex CVS 106 on my Grady, I'd like something of that caliber.

Randleman...one tip I'd give ya...if you're installin' a new VHF antenna, take a look at location on mine below...the thought in puttin' it there was it allows up/down without leaving the helm...and it's side-mounted rather than being flat on the deck...stays cleaner and allows water to flow past w/out obstruction...will lay forward or back...this may not work for everyone, but has worked out well on mine ;) ...

Sorry about the snow... ::) ...

Thanks REEL, there is an antenna already mounted. But I'll study it to see if it needs moving.

My antenna is in hte same place as reel but the only bad part with that loccation is when the canvass is up and you forgot to raise the antenna it can make it hard to do.

I just bought the Furuno LS 6100 from a guy for $200, its not color but for the price, You have to buy the transducer seperate and I just ordered the B60-20 thru hull, it only extends 3/16" below the hull.

They make a color LS 6100 but the best price I found was abt $800.

If you decide to go non color I can turn up on to the same guy I bought mine from.

Hurry up guys and do the survey I can't post until I know what every one chose. This is #99.

I'm being held prisoner in the silent jail of computerizion.

Better get that thing back to the store before the return policy runs out on ya. Unless you want to send it to me as a "boat warming" gift. ;)
