If you don't lay the display flat on the deck when navigating, that weak mount will do it for you ( I don't think you will like the results). That size mount is marginal at the console in boat wakes or waves.

Mine I got off ebay. Its a fabric type versus the common plastic weave type.

Updated my units to 6.74 yesterday. Today I went to Squaw Creek to test them out for the first time. Yes I'm a slacker... Man the 998c si units are plain awesome. I didn't have much issue with the direct sunlight and screen issue must complain about. I could see all the submerged timber and tons of bait balls. The definition was awesome compared to what I had before. Should make for a lot of fun on the water for years to come.

So you're saying the 6.7 was the best version so far?

6.74 is the only version I've used. First time out with the units.

Ahh, ok. Seems like alot of the bird guys are going back to 4.9 (or something like that) because they are having all kinds of update problems due to the new 360 & Ipilot link updates. But if its working for you then that's good.
