[QUOTE="Ray Clark, post: 494774, member: 31103"] I have an old Lowrance on my Lund 14' boat. If all you really want is depth, water temp, and some basic capability, you may be able to find a used unit for very low cost. Even new in basic fish finders is not too bad. For me, I want to improve the down image ( like I can already see on my Lowrance), and want to add side imaging. I also want a bigger, brighter screen that I can see with my sunglasses on and one that is better in bright sunlight. I am looking at a Humminbird CHIRP 7 G4 or Lowrance equivalent, and I should be able to get one onto the boat in the range of $700-$800 all said and done. I'll move my old Lowrance up to the front of the boat and hook it to the US2 on my trolling motor. The new finder will be midships on a swivel mount. I saw a demo of the Livescope a few weeks ago. Fun to watch, but not happening for me in this lifetime. [/QUOTE]
