Looking for some guidance. I will be doing inshore recreation fishing . Some trips to Montauk . The area is new for me , I want radar for fog . I previously fished Port Jeff / sound . The boat will have Manual controls .
I would like to use Garmin , but not opposed to others . 18" radar so it does not look out of wack , Navtronics -newer model as I have read here , N/S which display will fit just 12 or may acc 16 , may want separate cradle mounted sonar so it can be seen easier when fishing ,could also be a benefit to conserve power while drifting . stern mounted or pad mounted sonar (Garmin GT51m-TM ) as apposed to thru hull which may or may not be necessary for me . Is the Garmin VHS GPS the way to go ? Thanks !
