Might look at the Humminbird 561 DI it features Down Imaging and 2D Sonar in a Monochrome display for $199 http://store.humminbird.com/products/604313/561_DI Or Humminbird 561 is a 2D only Monochrome unit for $149 http://store.humminbird.com/products/495555?product_id=396ea9089537c29ff9be5cb8a712f816

You should let me use it for a few weeks to see how I like it.
Doug, I only fish small lakes (on a bass hunter 2 man boat)around Denton so I have no need for GPS. Do you think I would spend my money better buying the 571 HD DI?

Are you wanting to connect the front unit to your main unit in the future? What brand do you already have on the boat?
Humminbird makes a color unit called the PiranhaMax 195c that is color and sonar only for 170.00
The Humminbird 386ci Combo offers more at a price of 300.00.

Dude, it's going on a 2 man bass hunter boat so it will be the main unit.
