So with no budget in mind, how would you outfit your boat with the the latest technology? The only limit would be a maximum of four graphs. Go!

Garmin and Garmin only

+1

I’d have four Lowrance 12’s. I like the music and PowerPole controls. Also like running videos while I fish. I get bored.

1 helix 12 with the mega 360 up front along with whatever the best 12" Garmin is made with the best livescope they make and then 2 helix 12s at console.

Lowrance with CMAP for charts, 2D, and 3rd party map generation
Humminbird for SI, DI, 360
Garmin forward sonar.

All I need is a GPS and an old school flasher.

If I could get a do over I'd go with Garmin.

2 93sv plus, 92sv plus (just head unit for livescope), livescope, 57" force.

I’m not in love with the Garmin graph itself, but Livescope is the greatest invention in graphs so far. Side imaging is easier and faster, but the livescope is so much better.


And for some reason my Garmin map card is very inaccurate, which is a big surprise to me.

so if you had old graphs in front and console, had limited budget. Would like get Livescope for front, or put something with down/side imaging at the console? Which is more beneficial if you could only do one at the moment?

Livescope no doubt

I would also vote for the live scope. Also Garmin units in general. The mega 360 might give you a crisper picture but the new Garmin's produce such a sharp image you won't miss anything with them. They are so easy to use, and their auto settings are usually spot on that you don't have to mess with them.

Is live scope worth the price if you dont crappie fish that much?
