Martin Terry Posted January 17 Report Posted January 17 Looking to replace our 12 year old Lowrance HDS5 with something with a larger screen and more intuitive functionality. Any recommendations please and particularly porting across existing marks that we have on the existing unit. Thanks in advance Colin-58 1 Quote
great white Posted January 21 Report Posted January 21 I believe that the newer Lowrance units are very good. Or you could give Karl Betteridge of Better Connected a call for advice, his no is 07729 399433 If he does not answer, send him a message. Jim, Colin-58 and Gummage 3 Quote

plaicemat Posted January 21 Report Posted January 21 A vote for Charlie and Martin, I went for Lowrance which does everything I want it to and it was fitted by Karl with one or two other jobs, all professionally done. He's done several jobs for me, all very satisfactory. Terry. Jim 1 Quote
Colin-58 Posted January 21 Report Posted January 21 Hi Martin ,All above good advice, I have three Lowrance machines. A 9 t I 2. Now obsolete A f s 9 I am very pleased with and have just obtained the new eagle 9 live sight, suggest you check out videos , there is plenty on YouTube to study up, to get the best out of them you need to consider some good cards in them like platinum plus or equivalent, they come in around or just over £200 but if your buying new, lookout for deals, you can sometimes get them free in the deal so don't forget to ask. Also may be worth having a word with Ashley at seatronix, he is very knowledgeable and helpful, don't know where your boat is but he is near Poole and gets to mariners there regular. Hope this helps. Good luck, Colin. Gummage and Jim 2 Quote
