So the new to me boat has two gen3 HDS 9's and 1 HDS 12. I was just about to update them today. Can you choose which update to download or does it automatically take you to the latest?

Isn't it sad that Lowarnce makes a great product. Expensive IMHO but that seems to be what all of them are. Then does all these updates to fix issues with their technology in them but the updates make the units fail. Seems like their should be a lemon law or something!
I've been thinking about switching to a different set of units all together. Just don't feel like giving away my very expensive functioning OK HDS9s for pennies on the dollar to get something else.
