  1. I have an older Power drive V1 Autopilot with universal sonar 24 volt 80# on my 18#er and it's great.

    I added the Co-Pilot wireless module and it's pretty much all I use now.

    Don't think I've used the foot pedal since I added that.

    I would really love iPilot just for the virtual anchor when jigging.

  2. Whelp, it's that time of year again.

    They finished the ice road last week and I got out and packed and groomed my trail @ the cabin.

    This weekend I hauled the first load ot the season.

    4,000#'s of Western red cedar I had sent up from BC.

    She's all safe and stacked inside the cabin now.

    Next weekend I will be hauling roofing. :)

  3. Dave, how long does it take the light to go off after the goal is scored?

     

    About a second or two Bill.

    That's when watching on my sat.

    When I'm streaming it's really weird as the stream lags behind the actual broadcast so it goes off quite a bit before the goal is scored.

    I get to cheer a couple of minutes before I see the goal and have no idea who scored until I actually see it. :lol:

  4. If I get another unit it will have auto chart (i think that's what it's called) where I can make my own maps

     

    When I purchased my new unit @ Christmas that was a must have for me.

    My local waters are all uncharted except for some less than stellar charts of Great Slave.

    I ended up purchasing a Garmin Echomap Chirp unit. These units as well as their higher end units can map on the fly which is awesome.

    Even better is the price when compared to any other manufacturer that offers units that can map.

     

    The Lowrance units that map are their HDS Gen 2 and above. Lots of $$$ plus you have to upload your data to get the mapping back.

    The new Humminbird and Garmin's do it on the fly and save directly to a memory card.

     

    My Garmin is a 9" and cost was hundreds less than any comparable unit that can create maps.

     

    I can't wait to get on the lake this summer and map away. :D

    With the $$$ I saved I picked up a Humminbird Helix 7 on clearance for $250. ;)
