Has anyone tried this? It look pretty sweet, but a little pricey.........

Can this be mounted on the cross bar of an AI or TI? I did not see such a mount in the Humminbird website but I would think that there'd be a way.

I also think you can buy the kayak mounting kit separately on the Humminbird website and use a different unit if you don't need the combination fishfinder/gps. This will bring the price down.

I purchase this kit and installed it on my PA. I love it. I am still working on getting the gain set just right to shoot through the hull. If anyone has any pointers on that it sure would be appreciated. I would definitely recommend this unit though.
:D

I'm new to the sight and kayak's and was wondering if everyone uses these smaller graphs for a reason. I have a bass boat with hds 7 on the bow and a 8 on the console. I was just going to install a new trandsducer and use one of those graphs. I was even thinking of installing a LSS1 structure scan.

BTW, I have no interest in MadFrog's company other than being a satisfied customer
