I joined this forum a short while back while I was debating whether to go H'bird or Lowrance for new electronics on my TR20. Based on what I've read here; a long chat with Greg while visiting Eufaula, and advice from a good friend who is a H'birder I've made up my mind as to brand.
I think I've also decided on the units and setup but I'd like to run it by you pro's for comment and/or advice:
At the console on a RAM mount a 998c Combo interlinked with a 788i Combo in the bow. I would have the SI transducer on the transom and a thru-hull puck in the bilge for high speed. I would have the standard 'ducer on the t-motor and receive waypoints up front via the interlink. I will leave my Lowrance X510c in the dash as a backup depth reading unit. The components I think I need to buy include the 998 and 788 along with a RAM mount, Y-cable, interlink, through hull transducer. Anything else?
Also: recommendations for a reliable installer near North Alabama or Central Tennessee.
Any and all comments/suggestions appreciated.
