Anybody put one of these on thier boat? I was thinking about looking into one. Didn't like the way the dealer set up the sensor for the front fish finder. Want to set it up differently. Any help would be greatly appreicated.

Go to bass boats central. Those guys can answer about 95 out of a 100 questions, but you need to be specific on your comments.

There is two ways to connect/network the two units. I went with the simple and cheaper - just wire then togehter (NMEA-0183) versus the NMEA-2000 network cables approach.

Big Al,

Give me a call if I can help.

How is that system working for you. I am new to this but it is my understanding you can view wavepoints on both units and when you save a wavepoint on one it saves it on the other also. I have a 520C on my dash. Thinking of buying a 520C for the front.What other features are you able to do when they are networked as compared to hooked up seperately.
Thanks for your help.

Yes they share waypoints and external GPS. You can use either transducer or both use 1. I like mine. I fish my crappie condos lots and I can run to them, but before be poking around trying to find them with the trolling motor. Now I don't have that problem!!
