Lowrance HDS
Anybody running an HDS on their boat, and do you have any feedback? Looking to replace older Lowrance with an HDS-7.

i was going to buy one but then decided to go with two seperate units. Lowrance Elite5 Chartplotter and a X-135 also a Lowrance. cheaper at $750 for the two. and bigger screens than one 7inch screen.Had to shop a bit but, it was worth it.

I have a HDS-5. I like it. steelhead how do you like your Striper? I'm considering the same model. I have a Four Winns 235 Sundowner now. It.s getting up in age.

Sorry steelhead. I was responding to cmw524. I got confused. I've been getting beat up by the walleye the last few days and trying to get my bearings. Glad to hear your running great. With a boat there is always issues.

I've got a HDS-5 and I really like it. I've had 2 issues. The first one was the unit locking and freezing while in motion. I called Lowrance and they told me to check the extra wires that I didn't use for touching each other at times. All the wires were stripped the same length, if you don't trim and tape them up and they touch the unit will not work correctly. My second issue that I'm still having is with the boat icon freezing up at times. The boat will change direction and the screen does not update. Usually this happens when making sharp turns. I'm installing the new 4.0 software update that lowrance just released. I'll let you know of it fixes the issue.
Other than that I love it
