Lowrance Hook 2

SQ Topwater · Post by **SQ Topwater** » Sat Feb 03, 2018 12:32 pm

I am looking at upgrading my electronics.
We have a 2018 Nitro Z18.
I am not sure if I should go with a Hook2 7 TripleShot Combo or go with a larger screen without side scan.
Any thoughts?

Thank you
Mike

Well since I did not get help on this, I decided to get the Hook2 7 Split Shot.
Only trouble now is that I am having trouble finding the gasket to flush mount it in my console.
I think it is Lowrance part# 000 14188 001.
I WILL try Boatmastrs on Monday.

Mike,
I know next to nothing about the newer electronics. My electronics are at least 10 years old.
That's why I didn't respond.
I thought someone who actually knew what they were talking about might respond.
I hope whatever you chose works out for you.
Boatmasters is a good outfit.

Mark,

Thank you for your reply. You post a lot of great info.
I thought that maybe I did wrote my request for info in such a way that the Lowrance guys did not understand what I was asking.
THANK YOU
Mike

My experience with the Lowrance folks here is that they are very helpful.
Maybe you should try contacting them directly.

I'm not sure where you are at now but the Hook 2 are great units for the money. I have not tried to mount a unit where you need a "gasket" but if you need one that is supplied by Lowrance, any Lowrance dealer can order one for you.

I did not reply since I was not sure of your fishing style. Some rely heavily on StructureScan and some use it just occassionly. In your installation manual you will find the correct product # for the flush mount kit.
