I'm looking at getting a new finder and was looking hard at the humminbird helix 7. Di and GPS. Does anybody here have one and if so how do y'all like it? How's the reliability with it? Thanks

I've got the Garmin 73dv and love it. I think one of the Big box stores had it for $525 recently

Garmin 73SV was $499 at the Cabelas booth at the Classic expo last weekend. That may have been show only price but you could check with them. I have a 93SV at the console and the 73DV at the bow. I love mine!


See you on the lake and have a great day!

Got my Garmin 73sv on sale at Bass Pro for $550. If you can find one on sale somewhere around that price range, I really don't think that unit can be beat by anything in that price range.
