    HDS5 for sale with standard mount, power cable and high Speed Ducer. Also included is a Navionics+ chip that is good for North America.
    Good unit for AEM and on the ice (with an ice ducer).

    $325 here... will post for $350 on the other site and FB tomorrow.

    Might consider selling without chip.

    It looks like a gen 2 unit by the darker color. Gen 1 units were light grey.

    Pretty sure that’s a Gen 2. Lowrance is written in blue on the Gen 1 units, and white on the Gen 2 units.

    Easiest way to find out is look at the bottom. Shows model# ser# on a sticker.

    If it was a Gen2 it would say Gen2 on the boot up screen, the above photo does not so I would say Gen1

    Looks like a Gen2 to me, boot up screen is different. Below is a picture of a co-workers Gen1 when I was trying to update the gps rollover software for them. Picture taken per request from Lowrance tech so they could convince their engineers that the Gen1 update is faulty.

    You can find what it is in the "About" screen. You'll find the "About" option in the "Settings" menu.

    Or maybe it's Settings - System - About... Either way it's easy enough to find. I forget the exact key sequence to get to the "About" screen. Hit "Settings" and you should find it.
