    A stop at Cabelas got the boating juices flowing today. Some of the units are amazing, the sticker shock hurt but that lead me to think someone on here might be upgrading.

    So basically I'm looking for a HDS 7 Gen 2, with or without StructureScan. I will entertain other units like a Elite 7, or maybe a larger HDS if the price is right.

    So if anyone on here is upgrading or knows of someone, let me know. TIA

    They had an HDS 9 Gen 2 in the bargain cave. Not sure if you saw that one! Still not cheap though...

    I have the same unit and really like it. It doesn't sound like this one for sale has the structure scan unit and transducer. That's at least a $500-600 hit if you can actually find one. If you're going to buy an HDS unit you have to get the structure scan with it. Fishing wouldn't be the same without side imaging now.

    Hmmm...
    I would be willing to part ways with my Elite 7 CHIRP. I would also throw in my ice fishing kit (Genz Pack, battery, ice transducer, power cable and extra gimbal bracket - $250 in accessories) for seamless boat/ice transition.
    $1000.00 for the whole shebang or $800.00 for the summer set up.
    Let me know.

    Sale on at the fishing hole. Starts today. Hds gen 2 touch units included. Buy online and ship to home free and only pay one tax. If you pick up in the store, you pay both taxes.

    Not sure why, but the exact same unit is listed for two different prices. Same models, same transducer etc... If you purchase, make sure to select the least expensive one. Note: they come with the 83/200 transducer, so you would still need the lss-2 ducer for structure scan. The lss-2 combo package is a different model number.

    I would jump on this. Limited stock left. Free ship and no taxes when shipped to pembina. Also $100 us rebate. So $899 US total after tax and shipping.
