After more than a few connection issues that I have had the past couple of years with my Raymarine C80 and DSM 300 sounder I decided that maybe its time to upgrade. I have read that this is a common problem boaters are having with the DSM 300 with intermittent connections and loss of depth data at the most important times. I didn't want to gamble with a replacement sounder only to have it happen again once in the water this year.
I am looking at the Axiom 9" and was wondering if anyone has upgraded from an C or E series and could offer some comments or perhaps recommendations before I reach out to Raymarine sales folks? Will it adapt clean to the C80 cutout?
I assume I would need to replace my thru-hull transducer and was curious how difficult it would be to snake the new cable from the console? I have the ST60 display unit and not sure what happens with this unit?
I do not have radar but would like to stick to a unit with the capabilities in the future.
Let me know your thoughts if you have gone through this?
Thanks in advance
