Thanks for your input Gerrit.
Right now i have some old hummingbird fishfinder on the boat,
I was thinking of getting a gps/radio(https://buy.garmin.com/shop/shop.do?pID=283), which i can also use for ice fishing(cheaper option, which will probably make me stay closer, I doubt i'll be head too far out anyways, maybe when i do go out further, i'll do the below option.. lol)
or i can get a new gps/sonar and a stationary radio and get a handheld for ice fishing(VERY expensive option! but new toys:D)

*oh wait, i just realized, the humingbird ff on my dash, i can stick that at the bow since my powerdrive has universal sonar...
then i could get a sonar/gps and a radio...
yikes.. B.O.A.T.
