Makes location more accurate

Happy husband, happy. Life?Woman?Anyway. Good buy. That's exactly what he says. You want one and you need one. when using maps to find fish.

Pros
  • Easy to install
Cons
  • Requires power outlet

Revainrating 3 out of 5

Pay attention to the installation location.

Check position on boat before drilling holes. Because this block has a magnetic compass, any motor, speaker, or magnet will throw it off.

Pros
  • Free for educational purposes
Cons
  • Crumpled

Another very good Humminbird product

Works as advertised. Front mounted with my Helix 12 SI. I now have a better GPS signal and a stable heading. Watch an online video on how to program your Helix to use this external sensor instead of the internal sensor in your Helix main unit.

Pros
  • Quality construction
Cons
  • Easily repairable

Course features make it easy to follow the course!

Bought this unit to improve the accuracy of my Solix 12's location info. Mounted it on a $25 Ram D VHF antenna bracket (thread match perfect) about 18" in front of the motor on my bass boat . No problems with interference. I'm using it with the Solix Live Chart feature to chart the bottom of a historically significant bay in my area. Allows me to run parallel tracks at short intervals to ensure the bottom of my DI and SI collections are fully covered.

Pros
  • Delivery was very quick
Cons
  • I will add later

Makes it easier to navigate the map

I installed this device on the aft deck and turned on the Humminbird 798 HD Si. I can only say wow. The chart is now easy to navigate and I am sure of the direction the ship is heading. They are worth owning. An external antenna is the only way out. Installation is easy. I mounted my antenna on the back deck behind my seat. Mounting is not critical as satellites can see the antenna hundreds of miles above you. It's not that they can't look over your shoulder.

Pros
  • Best in its niche
Cons
  • There are some nuances
