Why not the 83/200?

Hey guys, thanks for your input. Good info.

Fishingfiend, I have been watching Doug Vahrenberg's videos on youtube
Very educational and convinced me to go with a Humminbird unit.

Good to know about the depth penetration with the different transducers
Kayak wise, most of my angling will be inshore.

Going with this unit: (597 ci HD DI) http://store.humminbird.com/products...9220796a9b96d4

83/200 is for shallower depths . And more geared for freshwater. I asked the same question to lowrance and told them where and what I was fishing. They answered question faster than I could ask it.
