I am thinking of stepping up to the side image graph. Does anyone use the Hummingbird helix 9 SI? Cabelas has it on sale for 899.00
Thanks for any info on it.

Check Universal Mania. Possibly a better price and no tax or shipping. Cabelas and BPS are the two highest places to buy stuff even if it's on sale. Any company in Texas or that has a store in Texas is going to charge sales tax. On some items, that can run into the hundreds of $$$.

That unit comes with the smaller Compact SI transducer and will perform better with the HDSI transducer XHS 9 HDSI 180 T.
You can exchange the Compact SI for the HDSI through Humminbird Customer Service. It's about $85 including shipping for the exchange.
