Need a little advice here. As of right now I am running a Helix 9 GPS with i-link terrova 80lb. I enjoy this set up and plan on keeping it as I like the control features that allow me to record tracks and follow them with my minnkota.
But I am in the market for a system with Sidescan and downscan. I have been doing a lot of research and even took a lowrance hds 9 gen 3 class at the sports show just to get a feel for the lowrance model. Nice unit and has a ton of options. One of my favorite is the fact other people on the boat can connect with a tablet or smart phone using the wifi and see what is on the graph as well as being able to control it.
Well after doing some research I found that Raymarine has a unit called the Axion that came out this year. This also has wifi connect option and blutooth. This unit allows 4 types of sonar with one transducer (chirp, DI, SI and 3Dscan). My problem is I have no experience with Raymarine but theirs system seems decent and user friendly from watching some videos. I am wondering if anyone has ever used their electronics? What did you think of them? Customer service and so? Just looking for some input.
