Thanks: 
Reply With QuoteSo I just got a new boat and I am thinking of installing live scope on the bow. I was thinking of the Echomap 93sv up there. Is this a good unit to run with Live scope? What else would I need?(besides the panoptix transducer)

I heard from Garmin that the updated series includes advanced cartography and this cartography can update the existing plus units. Might have to pay for the update.

David Goodson owns Shut-up-and-Fish.com and is very knowledgeable on Garmin. He sells them and his prices are very reasonable.Originally Posted by Domsmith4

If you call cabellas, they still had some of the 93sv's with touchscreen on sale for 599.00. It's an unbelievable unit for this price. They don't have the listed on their website so you have to call. I use the fishing specialty's transducer pole mounted across from my trolling motor. If you are gonna run a trolling motor with a remote and spot lock, this is pretty cheap insurance to protect your transducer and cable. There are pictures of the pole on this forum. They make a mount now specifically for the livescope transducer for 150.00. www.fishingspecialties.com. Any questions you can call them and they are very helpful.

If your looking for the cheapest way to get a LiveScope up and running then the best deal I found was at the GPS store 94SV without the ducer. It looks like everyone is holding at the $1,499 price for the scope. I don't have very deep pockets so I'm catering to the Sportsman's Guide since you can both the 93Sv and live scope on a 4 payment plan with no interest, free shipping and a $25 off bonus. Buying direct from Garmin may not be a bad deal I went as far as the "confirm purchase" button and it never did add any taxes, but after this gets out that will probably get changed.

Lonnie that 94sv is a blue water unit not inland lake mapping so you would have to turn around and pay for a inland lake card.

But if your just wanting to run live scope it shouldn't matter right? I already have a 'bird with all the mapping I need.
