That is a really good FF for that price make sure it comes wit hthe trans that they have listed as it does also come with the 83/200 with no DSI
It lists 83/200 455/800

83/200 is the normal sonar screenshots you see. With the arches and colors. or black and white. A 455/800 transducer will show you more of a picture of what is going on below you.
This is a shot of both. Regular sonar on the right, DSI or the 455/800 picture on the left. For saltwater you are better off not getting the DSI because its depth penetration isnt great. HDI units can do both DSI and regular. HDI units are good for saltwater, but I upgraded to HDS recently and it's much better. |

The HDI transducer has both types of sonar, so if you can get that for a good price that is the way to go.

Yakkid let me know if you find out more about this deal. Looks pretty good. I'm in the market for my first ff. Does anyone know if this fits a lowrance ready Hobie? And is there any issues with the wires fitting the standard wire caps that come from hobie?
Thanks. |

http://www.basspro.com/Lowrance-Mark...3091106262010/ The Mark 4 HDI that I have did not come with the HDI (83/200 & 455/800khz) transducer, only the normal broadband (83/200) transducer. Looks like the HDI transducer is around $100 by itself so this is a good deal if you can verify. |
