Deschanel Posted December 13, 2013 Share Posted December 13, 2013 Hi just wondering if anyone has compared these two models of fish finders. To be used on my Tinnie estuary fishing targeting bait schools and larger fish ie; kings, Jews, snapper insore. Current price for the Elite 5x HDI $399 bcf and the 5x HDS ebay $540 or at the shops $680. What would be the best product value for money and for my use?

oz_brett Posted December 13, 2013 Share Posted December 13, 2013 you have to ask yourself what your going to connect to it in the future? can you connect structure scan to the elite ? does the elite connect with NMEA200 incase you want to connect to your motor, fuel flow meter etc.) as for the structure scan question let me know if it does I have a mate thinking the same already has the elite.

Deschanel Posted December 14, 2013 Author Share Posted December 14, 2013 Not going to connect to anything. Just going on my little tinny with a 2 stroke 30hp. I don't think I can justify the extra $600 for the structure scan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oz_brett Posted December 14, 2013 Share Posted December 14, 2013 I was in bcf today & noticed a humminbird 346 cx di down image unit for under $400 i thought that was a pretty good deal Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
