I currently have a 1198 on the console. Wanting to add an inexpensive unit to the bow for locating waypoints and brushpiles crappie fishing. Need to be able to network the 2 units. What is a good unit for this purpose. I have came across a slightly used 788. Will this unit network and do the job I need?

You just need a Humminbird graph that is ethernet capable. The 788 has ethernet so you should be good

You will need a Humminbird Ethernet Dongle to make the 788 ethernet capable. $25 part.

You need to be aware of ALL of the 788 models.
There are four of them.
788c Combo---------Sonar external GPS antenna
788ci Combo--------Sonar internal GPS antenna
788ci HD Combo-----Sonar internal GPS antenna
788ci HD DI Combo--Sonar/Down Imaging internal GPS antenna

ONLY the two with HD in their model names are Ethernet capable.

All four of them are INTERLINK connectable with the 1198c SI Combo.

The AS INTERLINK has been discontinued and you may find some old stock or a used one.


Helix 12 CHIRP MEGA SI+ GPS G3N and G4N, 1198c SI, SOLIX 10 SI G3,
Helix 8 MEGA SI+ GPS G4N, SOLIX 12 SI and G3, MEGA 360, MEGA LIVE TL, RC-1

Just so you know, that unit will not network with the 1198, if that is still what you are wanting to do.

Yes it will as I described depending on which 788. The 1198c SI Combo is both INTERLINK and Ethernet capable.
