I have the Lowrance I-finder Expedition C, it works great paired with the Navionics North chip. Has anybody seen or have the new Lowrance XOG......I'd like to hear some reviews on this unit, it looks pretty sweet.

was at scheels yesterday and bought my H2O and its pretty easy to use i just gotta get into the manual to learn more, but he said that it can get within 7 or so feet of the point your looking for, so for that i am not feeling too bad. cant wait to use it. Stupid tests i have beentaking, and the if the snow god would just take a vaca i could go fishing.

My lakemaster chip is about 2 years old and it does not have any detail of Lake of the Woods either side of the border. The HSOforum for that firm shows a seperate chip for LOTW and has a note under it saying that Canadian data is available.

According to the Cabelas compare the H20 has only 12 Receiver channels where as the Expedition C has 16. The Expedition only has 64MB of internal download memory where the H20 has 128MB. The H20 has a 240x180 resolution and the Expedition is 320x240. The Expedition has a built-in electronic compass and Barometric Altimeter. The Expedition allows you to record voice notes for waypoints and also play MP3s.

Go with the Expedition for sure.

If you look at the Cab----- HSOforum you can compare the features of a lot of units.

Do I understand that for an extra $30 if I buy the Expedition I get less detailed base maps and can listen to music on what has to be a pretty crappy speaker? Boy, that seems like a tough decision to make.

Nope, they come with the same base maps.

Actually it has a digital compasss and barometer. I think these are handy items. I think the expidition has better resolution on the screen as well. I don't think there is any speaker in it. I have been contemplating upgrading from the H20c to the Expidition. Maybe next year.

I like many others have and like the H20. I've got the B&W...Its 2-3 yrs old. And not certain how good the color ones are now....but back then, the B&W was the way to go...for one, you could see the screen better when it was lighter out, and #2, it didn't swallow up batteries as fast as the color version. I haven't been up to speed on the new units themselves...just the chips...and let me tell you...They are unbelievable...

The expedition c is a i finder. I have this one 269.99 and 79.99 for lake master pro. Go with the H20c and add the chip in the future color is the best option going now for GPS's. making out contour lines is so much easier on the eyes. Reed's has best deals and free shipping.

      It’s done automatically.  You might need an actual person to clear that log in stuff up.   Trash your laptop history if you haven’t tried that already.

      Problems with Yetti

      By rundrave · Posted

      we had some nice weather yesterday and this conundrum was driving me crazy  so I drove up to the house to take another look. I got a bunch of goodies via ups yesterday (cables,  winch ratchet parts, handles, leaf springs etc).   I wanted to make sure the new leaf springs I got fit. I got everything laid out and ready to go. Will be busy this weekend with kids stuff and too cold to fish anyway, but I will try to get back up there again next weekend and get it done. I don't think it will be bad once I get it lifted up.    For anyone in the google verse, the leaf springs are 4 leafs and measure 25 1/4" eye  to eye per Yetti. I didnt want to pay their markup so just got something else comparable rated for the same weight.   I am a first time wheel house owner, this is all new to me. My house didn't come with any handles for the rear cables? I was told this week by someone in the industry that cordless drills do not have enough brake to lower it slow enough and it can damage the cables and the ratchets in the winches.  I put on a handle last night and it is 100% better than using a drill, unfortatenly I found out the hard way lol and will only use the ICNutz to raise the house now.

      I haven’t done any leaf springs for a long time and I can’t completely see the connections in your pics BUT I I’d be rounding up: PB Blaster, torch, 3 lb hammer, chisel, cut off tool, breaker bar, Jack stands or blocks.   This kind of stuff usually isn’t the easiest.   I would think you would be able to get at what you need by keeping the house up with Jack stands and getting the pressure off that suspension, then attack the hardware.  But again, I don’t feel like I can see everything going on there.

      Problems with Yetti

      By rundrave · Posted

      reviving an old thread due to running into the same issue with the same year of house. not expecting anything from yetti and I already have replacement parts ordered and on the way.   I am looking for some input or feedback on how to replace the leaf springs themselves.    If I jack the house up and remove the tire, is it possible to pivot the axel assembly low enough to get to the other end of the leaf spring and remove that one bolt?   Or do I have to remove the entire pivot arm to get to it? Then I also have to factor in brake wire as well then. What a mess   My house is currently an hour away from my home at a relatives, going to go back up and look it over again and try to figure out a game plan.           Above pic is with house lowered on ice, the other end of that leaf is what I need to get to.   above pic is side that middle bolt broke and bottom 2 leafs fell out here is other side that didnt break but you can see bottom half of leaf already did but atleast bolt is still in there here is hub assembly in my garage with house lowered and tires off when I put new tires on it a couple months ago. hopefully I can raise house high enough that it can drop down far enough and not snap brake cable there so I can get to that other end of the leaf spring.
