Lowrance x67c Ice Machine


RuKiddingMe

Question

I'm looking to hear what people who own these units think about them. I have a few questions also. How deep can you use the sonar? Is the interference from other sonars as bad as it is made out to be? Is the real time pretty good or is sluggish like I've read in past reports?

I'm not to interested in the Vex or Marcum, as I will be using this unit on my boat also, and I like the graph for showing what the bottom looks like.

I think the x67c will go down to 600 feet.
I have never had a interference problem but I don't fish near other flashers.
The real time is real time, just like the Vexs and Marcums.
I have been using mine since December and I love it. I can't wait to use it on the boat too.

Have a good one!

I used mine about three/four weeks ago with someone from this site. He used a Vexilar I think...I was picking up some interference. I just moved my unit about a foot or so away from his and mine worked fine. If my unit was right next to his then I picked up a lot of junk on screen but once away it worked fine.

    • Yeah it was a beatdown
    • Your kid needs to stay with him!👍
    • My kid was eating in Beverly Hills and ran into this guy. Talked to him a bit and wished him luck in the game tonight.     
    • 🤔as a recovering machinist!🤣🤣that must make me a recovering welder!
    • As a recovering machinist, I can appreciate that.  If the spec is 0.001 - 0.0015, then clearly the correct measurement is 0.00125, duh…
    • I just figured that it is easy enough to just get a 3 bank so when the boat is not in use I can keep all 3 batteries charged. I have not bough a charger yet, maybe I will give it some more thought. Edit: After thinking this over, with the size, weight, and heat output of the charger (as well as the cost) I think it makes sense to just buy a 2 bank charger, I have a smaller charger i can use on the starting battery when the boat is sitting at home. Forgive me, for i am a retired engineer and I have to obsess over everything...
    • Congrats on the motor!  I think you’ll like it.   I can’t say much on the charger location but I’ve seen them under the lid in back compartments and under center rod lockers.  160 degrees is more than I expected to hear.   Curious why you’re opting for a 3 bank charger with a 24V trolling motor.  Unless you don’t feel you be running you big motor enough to keep that battery up as well?
    • I did buy an Minnkota Ulterra, thanks for the recommendations. I had a bunch of Cabela"s bucks saved up, which helped. Now i need to get an onboard battery charger. Where do you guys mount these things in your boat? The manufacturer I am looking at {Noco genius) says tht their 3-bank charger will run at 160 degrees, seems like a lot of heat in an enclosed compartment? Thanks for any input on this.
    • You're very lucky a troop of Sea Monkey's didn't carry you away.   
    • Wasn't terrible at a state park beach. Antelope island maybe.  I wouldn't recommend it as a beach destination tho.  Figured I was there, I'm getting in it.
