My suggestion is to hold off to save a little more money and buy the larger unit with DI and SI. You'll sure appreciate it later.

I'd look for a used 898 in the same price range as the 859 you have listed. The 698 will be small to try and see anything on SI when you're standing up above it.
I love having SI and mapping up front even though I don't use it as much as I do DI and 2d sonar. It's very nice to have when I need it.

Then why have a graph at all petro? I mean you either know how to catch fish or you don't so spend that money on gas and entry fees so you can take everyone else's money.

Save a few more bucks and get the 899.
SI on the bow is a great tool, especially over rocks or flats. DI is a small cone, easy to miss fish.
With the bigger screen you have room to display a map or DI along with SI.
The 899 also lets you network with other units.
