Looking to get a new FF this year and not spend a bundle.
My 898 is about 6 years old and shuts down sometimes by it self and buttons about wore out after countless hours on the water and over 2500 waypoints.

Best thing I have found so far to upgrade is this:

Helix 9 SI GPS Fishfinder Combo with Side Imaging,
Price 750.00 total to my front door.

Anyone have any better buys/suggestions?


I'm always in a good mood when I'm fishing.

Kevin, call David at Shut-up-and-fish and ask about Garmin. See what they have to offer. I have a buddy that has one and loves it!

Cannot go wrong with the Helix 9. Best bang for the buck!

Where did you find the 9 si for $750? That's a really good deal.

Yesterday they had it at jet.com for 799 and they had a special promo for 50 bucks off your first purchase.

I'm sure as time goes by they will get even cheaper.

It was also free shipping and no tax.

Would like to go with David @ shut up and fish, but I don't think he can compete with some of these other sites since they don't charge tax.

Most places wanted 999.00 for the unit.

Authorized dealers are not permitted to advertise below retail. They are clearly in violation with dealer/manufacture pricing policies.
That price is lower than I can even buy them for myself. Let me know how your purchase turns out. I may buy from them....
