Helix 5 pics

**Rees Guide** · 02-22-2015, 10:00 PM

Thanks Ricki, I have a 899 at the console and would like to have a Helix 2D beside it for depth when running and use the 899 for mapping and then use them vise versa when long lining and pulling cranks. Get another on for the bow with SI on it. Lot of bang for the buck me thinks!!

Very nice shots indeed! Thanks for posting. Will help me decide to get one or not.

Quality of scanning is pretty good, but you did not use the main advantage of HILIX 5 – it’s full screen SI width:

Hey! You guys were on the same lake in the same spot! Go figure!

Can you please tell me how to get the full screen. I wanted to remove the digits from my screen but I couldnt figure it out. I didnt think it was possible. Thanks

Thanks Chadw and Vik3. I can't wait to get back on the water and use the Helix for exactly what it was made for. I have another question. On the last 2 pictures I posted, is that a ditch on the left side of the screen and what are the light shaded spots near it. I was thinking possibly part of an old roadbed but I'm unsure. Thanks again for the help.

Looks like a ditch, and two pipelines woud look the same way.
