Well, after 16 years, The Humminbird Side Imaging Forums may be at its end! My job and hobbies no longer allow me time to keep up with the forums and the hosting is not worth renewing from a financial standpoint.

If there is anyone who would like to take over the hosting and upkeep, please message me. Maybe there is someone here who can bring new life to the forums by posting new topics and categories to attract new members. At one point we have over $500 a month in ad revenue and thousands of page views daily. Sadly, I did not keep up with the content and forums.

There is a lot of historical content here.....I hate to see it disappear.

Please let me know if it worth saving.

Thanks for all the years of patronage.

That sad news, however I have seen it coming for some time now.  :'(
Definitely, I don't want to see it ending. This forum is the only place where it is possible to get reliable information about HB units and more. In my opinion, it even substitutes official HB support because of their lack of knowledge.
I don't feel competent to run this for many reasons (my location, luck of experiences with internet forums, outdoor day job, so I have only minimum time on PC...) however, if there is any chance of running this forum by community, I will be happy to help. 

Lastly, in any case, please find some way to store legacy information in this forum. Any time I google something about HB and side imaging or fish finders/sonars, this forum always pops out.
