Just over a year ago we put one of himminbird's high zoot fishfinders w gps on dad's tracker..... The fishfinder is now out of warranty and he is still sending it back to humminbird AGAIN in an effort to make it work how they claim it does... To date it has never clearly shown what is actually on bottom like their sample screens indicate though humminbird still claims they can make it do so....... He says he'll never buy another humminbird and will go with lowrance.
On the tm, he has the Ipilot? or whatever the top model was... has gps routing gps speed control wireless remote etc... we werent sure which length to get and on the advice of the minkota tech we bought one quite a bit longer than we needed and it is really simple to take it apart and cut it to final length after testing it.
BTW, the TM tho it was quite pricey was totally worth it...... nothing better than trolling at gps 1.5 mph and hitting the "virtual anchor" when you get a strike... then the TM will allow the back of the boat to swing down wind but will keep the bow within a couple feet of where you were when you got that strike so you can get all his buddies too
