The screens are really small on those also if you have saw one up close. Only almost 3" high since they measure diagonal.

I'm not a big fan of the DI and SI since I just troll the bay for the eyes which are everwhere:lol: But here's a site I ordered a Hummingbird 597hdci on for cheap. They discontinued that model so over half off. Also I think this is the one your looking for. Look around for codes to put in for more off.....http://www.overtons.com/modperl/product/details.cgi?pdesc=Humminbird-Helix-5-SI-Fishfinder-GPS-Combo&i=831917

Is this a combo with gps also?

I've seen them for less, but not sure if they had both the down and side.

Hope you didn't do that. A lot better deals than $500. That doesn't have the down or side imaging does it?

Always a great time with Frank...Nice meeting you and Bob buster. Might have to look you up if I can get a couple trips west this August.

Great job and report there Frank! Glad you got into em on wed. along with some sag. bay gold! The perchies do look quite tasty:lol:

Nice job out there Tom! Will have to get out again fishing with you sometime, been awhile. Keep on em, we've been fishing probably the same area as you and doing well last 5 or 6 trips. Nice fish, and catching them with the grandkids are memories that will last forever for all of you:cool:

Great job as always Frank! Hope to get up there this year atleast once or twice with you. On vac. the week of fathers day, but son is coming to town from Texas. Maybe I can drag him along:D

Excellent! Sounds like you'll be sneaking up on those eyes for sure now:D

Thank you very much Bob! I've tweaked it a little, and call it walleye chowder. Make it at all the outings we have on M-S. If your ever around, stop on in. I do one every year the weekend after fathers day in Sebewaing. Will be posting by first of May or sooner on M-S.com.....Ralph

If you haven't tried selling it on I-boats.com, I'd suggest that. Lots of guys looking to restore those older "V5" hull boats. The best hulls starcraft ever made. Wish I had the time to do it. Nice boat, would be shame to part it out and scrap.

Thanks for report and posts on the smelt. Hope they make a big comeback like the good ole days. Could fill the void left by the ales for lots of fish.

Nice job by the island. Been wanting to get out there atleast once this year, but have yet to make to Caseville.

Welcome to the site! Don't know if you you've been to this site, but there's lots of info here..... http://forums.iboats.com/slickcraft-294/ I had a SS150, 15' slickcraft that was a great boat. Miss it.
