Fishing on an S28???

The only place fish belong on an S28 is:
- In the fridge
- Under the grill
- Inside the crew

I wanted it more for checking out the contours of the seabed rather than having smelly flappy fish on board

I may end up with the same opinion and just make do with the depth sounder rather than having a pretty picture of what's under the boat

Well, I've got one on my boat, and it works perfectly. Excellent tool for seeing whether the bottom is suitable for anchoring.

There was a "make offer" option. Try a cheeky bid, you never know if it's been a while.

*It has nothing to do with me* lol

Aha, fair enough. I'm in the Med, so I just have to look over the side to answer that question

I had one, worked well for me, but then I used to go fishing !
What ever you do, don't buy an Echomax forward looking sonar, now that really is carp..

ta for the advice buddy, is there a transponder you'd recommend?

Is a DSM 30 any use?

Is a DSM 30 any use?

in hindsight and after a little googling, it may well be. compatible with the C70 and other than it being 600w rather than 1000w on the 250, I cannot see much difference

 

[ARA]

I have one which has been in a cupboard for a couple of years which makes it 3 years old. It has hardly been used but I have it as a spare for my current boat, if you are interested then pm me with a final price that you are prepared to pay, I will then have a decision to make.

I had a DSM 300 on my C120 and it was a fabulous fish finder. Best out there for general leisure use and I used mine exclusively mid channel for wreck finding / fishing.

They aren't cheap.

The DSM250 is ok just not quite as high spec although I can't remember why.

BUT
A far cheaper way of getting the result you are looking for, which isn't a high quality image of a wreck or the swim bladder of a Pouting in 200' would be a half decent colour fishfinder from Lowrance or Garmin etc.
About £200 to £250 will get you a good basic unit that will do what you are asking. Clearly you want to link with your C70, but why split the screen on that when a separate screen wil be clearer and easier to use?

it's a space thing at the helm, these map reading plastic screens are great but they leave little or no room for add ons I'm afraid

I could mount it where this fella has it mounted but there's a mount for the backup / handheld GPS in that position at present

Surely the handheld GPS can live in your kit bag or grab bag until needed?
Does it really need a mount of it's own for the one trip that you will actually need it. It could even live under the plastic screen if there is enough depth?
