Heads up! HDS-5 Gen 2 on sale - Kayak Fishing Adventures on Big Water’s Edge

Just talked to folks at west marine and figured out difference. Basically going to wait for elite HDI as that has both DSI and sonar build into one whereas HDS just has sonar. Seems for the type of fishing I do that makes more sense.

My wife had one waiting for me when I got home today. A good woman is more precious than gold.

Glad some got on the deal. I'll second the sail mount. Out of the way leaving the rails free for everything else.
