I got a chance to use my new HDS’s on Friday & all I can say is WOW!! The target seperation & the resolution on these new units is on unbelievable. THe 3d view on the lakemaster or navionics maps is great. At 48mph & passing over cribs on lake Wissota & marking fish let me see your hummingbird to that. Kevin at Absolute motorsports did a great job of rigging & networking the units together. I’ll post pics later of the job he did. Again thanks to Kevin for the rigging & Wade for getting me the HDS 8.

No problem, Mark. I think I had the easy part!
Enjoy your new Lowrance units, Mark!

Have heard some good things about the new HDS’s. Haven’t been out in a boat running them yet, hopefully will get a chance to form my own opinion by the end of this years soft water.

This is coming from a guy who spent 11yrs in the Navy on Nuclear submarines using some of the most advanced sonars in the world at the time. I’m very impressed with the HDS unit.

I know Lowrance had some mid-year rebates. Anything like that coming for end of the year? Any upcoming sales?bigpikePosts: 6259September 17, 2009 at 9:44 pm #804960I believe if you combo the HDS unit with there side imagining they have coming out you can get $100 til the end of the year. Check there web site…
