Jim. I am running GPSMAP® 943xsv
SideVü, ClearVü and Traditional CHIRP Sonar with Mapping
they run 1,499.99but you can add radar later Something to check before buying a unit .. dont like clearvu prefer Chirip image

Out of my 3 additions last year i listed them in order of Value and usage 1st Radar with heading sensor gives me better chart & radar overlays really gave a me sense me safety (still wont run at speed in fog like
some )

2nd the trolling motor with spot lock used it more to slow a drift or create one or slow trolling pogies . and tog of course ...

3rd Side scan mostly for tog a finding bottom features and finding pogies who are not showing ... but dont use it as much as i expected I would also say the motor leg tends to interfere with one side of the image

And if you can go 23 ft do it .. i went 23 then wish i went 26 once i fished i few different areas .. the 23 gets it done. the 26 would have saved my knees and back!

good luck with whatever you decide to get
