That is with the Bimini Top, Bow Rail, Coaming Bolsters, Swim Platform, Humminbird Matrix 97 and a Standard Horizons Radio w/ Shakespeare Galaxy Antenna and Mount. This is all with installation. Haven't realized about the Antenna getting in the way, might get a little smaller(want dependable range) antenna or move the antenna off the Console. Also, to mhedrick; what is the speed that you get with the 150 XR6?

Leave some fish for the fishies!
Seems high... took me two minutes to find this one...

You may be able to get a 2004 leftover for less - still new. Or buy used 2003 for something in the range of 13K to 15K.

Otherwise, I would second the 3' whip. Shakespere makes one - model# 5240-R

GPS/Sounder split-screen gives both navigational and fish-finding all in one unit. Saves space on the constrained CC of the 190 and wont fail if it gets wet. This is the 178iC, but I use the 168c Sounder (couldn't find that one online quickly)

Best of luck and I hope to hear from you more after the purchase (or before)
