I finally took delivery of my River Jet rig and was having so much fun running her around for break in I forgot to do a serious playing with the 1197. All I can say about that is WOW, it's huge!
I had to use a large 2 1/2 inch ball ram for her on the CC. I did get a chance to run her wide open and nothing obstructs the ducer for side imaging. Hope to get on the river this weekend or next week to find some good targets for Si.
