  1. I will be thinking that 1400 will have been a clearance sale; at $400 they loos a big bunch of money on a unit that is still and will be still available for many years
  2. That was an error on the price but good for you
  3. No, compatible with: Gen2, Gen2 Touch, Gen3 and Carbon Also compatible with the Simrad Go series and Evo2 and EVO3
  4. https://www.boemarine.com/products/lowrance-outboard-pilot-cable-steer-pack
  5. I do run the Lowrance hydraulic and the steer cable use the same software and the motor that Lowrance use on the wheel is I'm pretty sure from Octopus and they are very well known and they also got an excellent reputation.
  6. A little more infos for those that are looking on adding a Lowrance autopilot on a cable steer cable system
  7. Your unit can't read a card larger then 2Gig so you need to call Navionics or look at a retailer if they still got the 1st Navionics+ that came on the maket; those are 2gb. Or has I said contact Navionics and I think they got one name: Global that is 2gb
  8. Looking on Airmar websit I found that the P95M is the brother of the TM-150M. I don't see any reason why you woould running 2 ducers with the same specs http://www.airmar.com/productdescription.html?id=202
  9. To know a little more on those new affordable units:
  10. Check it-out: https://www.navionics.com/usa/rebate?utm_source=partner&utm_medium=navionics&utm_campaign=Rebate&utm_content=digital_ad
  11. You can view what you are getting with the Navionics card by looking here: https://webapp.navionics.com/?lang=en#boating/search@7&key=_engG`}ewM Once zoom enough you can activate the sonarchart that gives you 1ft contour.
  12. I'm actually playing with a HOOK2 and I'm really impress with how easy it is to go through the Menu and the thing that bothers with reason was how slow was the zoom in-zoom out function and how slow the gps was on the previous HOOK and before that the Elite. Can't try it on the water, boat is winterize and we receive 6-7in. of snow last night and it's still snowing; I intent to run in the car to analyse how fast is the gps when moving. As for the zoom function it's very fast, no problem. But from waht I see now I think it's going to be perfect for the fisherman that want to have a good unit w/o all the bell and whistles and to have a excellent unit. Screen is very clear and sharp. I will try to do a short video
  13. Fishing is a remote area is not only catching but as you said just a different experience and have some fun.
  14. Now going to Cloava you through Parent and the road is not what the Clova road was. You drive 50mph on the gravel road but it still 120 miles so it makes 240 miles. Thats why I like Air Mont-Laurier. There is no gravel road from the base in Ste-Veronique.
  15. Another excellent lake is the famous Lake Hebert at Air Tamarac. 80% of the customers are US residents and they are returning year after year so I imagine that crossing the border is not a problem.
  16. @pap, this another video that just appear:
  17. I think things as improve since you encounter those problems. I cross the border around 60 times per year back and forth and 99.9% of the time I don't have any problem. On all those crossings quite often theire was a US license pplate in front of me and I never seen one pull aside for a second check. As for the walleyes close to home I have the same excellent fishing 15 min. from home on St-Lawrence but I need that remote fishing trip at least once a year, it's in my blood.
  18. There is a lot of talk about walleye fishing and I'm always surprise that not many US residents specially Vermonters and up-state nyer's and Pennsylvanian that are not taking advantage of the exhange rate in your favor. There is a reservoir in the middle of the province that is a walleye manufacture. There is a outfitter that is base in Ste-Veronnique a little less then 2 hrs form Montreal that run a nice business up there. You jump in the Beaver and 1hr later you are at the camp on the reservoir Gouin. When you look at the rates figure 30% less for you guys; the rates are in Canadian currency. For 5-7 days it's $830/each Can. That include the boat, motor, plane and camp. You can eat walleyes everyday and every meals. I'v seen eating walleyes for breakfast, lunch & dinner. There is also some very big pikes but most of the quebecers are not targetting pikes so they are all for you. I join some links. I'm not related or affiliated to that outfitter but I went there many times in the past and it's a 1st class organisation so I'm not afraid to recommend him. It's a family business, the owners are father & 2 sons; 3 pilots. http://www.en.airmontlaurier.com/quebec-fishing-pike-walleye-canada/quebec-pourvoiries-lacdumale http://www.en.airmontlaurier.com/outfitters-packages-quebec-canada
  19. I'm going to have one in hand next week so I will play in house on the simulator but that will give me a good idea. I will test it with a Navionics card in it and play with the zoom to see by myself the difference between the old Elite and the new HOOK2 I'll let you know
