I’m curious why you feel since you are in a kayak you have to stick with a 7 inch. I kayaked seriously for a little over 4 years. Had an HB 899 si on there. Had I not gotten out of kayak fishing I would have put the Helix Mega 10 si on there. I’ve seen guys that have Helix 12 on their yaks. We all have a budget but if it is within your budget I would go with a 9 inch or bigger. Seven years back I could dissect the info on the 899 with no issues. Today....even though nothing is medically wrong with my eyes.....bigger screen is a must.
