[QUOTE="vwguru714, post: 424726, member: 18046"] Rich I have the helix 5 si. When I'm looking in an area where I want to navigate to with submerge trees this is how I do it. Say I'm moving from South to North. I approach the southern most edge of the area on the eastern shoreline. I then turn my side imaging on for the starboard side and travel SLOWLY westward and map the area to the north. I can change the range up to 150 feet all directed to the north. When I reach the western shore I move north about 100 feet and turn back east, switch side imaging to port side and repeat. The nice thing is you can map and save the data. Interestingly I did this in a small area of Charlotte Harbor a few times over the summer to get a better understanding of how the bottom changes with tidal action. I was amazed at how much contour change there was along a specific sandbar in just 3 months time. Sent from my SM-G920V using Tapatalk [/QUOTE]
