Hi,
I recently bought a second hand boat that came with legacy Furuno gear. Specifically, TZT2 12, SS175HW, FCV-588, and B164.
I am considering adding some gear that I have kept off the boat I sold. Specifically, (second) TZT2 12, DFF1-UHD, SCX-20 and NMEA2000 network/hub; while removing the FCV-588.
My question is what is my best course of action regarding the existing transducers?
Will the UHD work with the existing SS175HW and B164 (50/200) - if so, how would this need to be cabled?
Any idea how the UHD would work with the SS175HW and a SS175L (which I understand is any easy swap out for the B164)?
I am thinking my other option is a TM260/265 (transom mount rather than cutting another hole in the hull), OR, just run the SS175HW into one TZT2 and the B164 (50/200) into the other TZT2, network them, remove the FCV-588, install the SCX-20 and forget about the UHD?
I would appreciate any suggestions you may have on the best way forward?
I typically bottom fish in 60' to 400' (foot) of water.
Cheers.
