[QUOTE="Tikka280ai, post: 165347, member: 753"] I will be upgrading electronics in my boat sometime this season but in completely outta the loop on how all this new stuff works. I plan on getting a helix 7 for the dash and a helix 5 for the bow. my trolling motor has a transducer built in that i plan on hooking to the helix 5. If i get a helix 7 with GPS can i run the GPS signal to the helix 5 on the dash or would the helix 5 need to have a GPS receiver also. Another area i dont understand is what are the advantages to DI and SI. I will be upgrading from a hummingbird fishfinder 568 so it is a whole new sack of cats for me Does anybody run a vexilar in their boats. i think i would like it but am unsure. Any and all advice is appreicated [/QUOTE]
