Vollmer. That's pretty much what I want to do with my setup. I'd like to have a dedicated GPS and run my imaging on my 898. BUUUT, I'd like to put something on the bow. I don't know why, because I never fish out of the bow. I'm a "constantly tinkering" kind of a guy I guess.
Brad, do you use the mapping software on that bad boy? I can't even imagine what that could do for a guy.
Yes, I have had some issues with Autochart Pro conversions but I think that was mostly operator error but let me tell you about AutoChart LIVE. It came out as an upgrade for ONIX owners and for a guy fishing an uncharted river it is stupid. I can map out a few hundred yards of river in about 10 minutes and have a real lakemaster map at my fingertips. I actually think I like this more than side imaging sometimes.
