The Garmin® ECHOMAP® Ultra 106sv Fish Finder/Chartplotter Combo with GT54 Transducer has all the tools you need for successful fishing. This high-performance Garmin fish finder has a bright, sunlight-readable keyed-assist 10" touchscreen display. It supports CHIRP traditional sonar as well as Ultra High-Definition ClearVü and SideVü scanning sonars. It also includes preloaded BlueChart® g3 coastal charts and LakeVü g3 inland maps – both with integrated Navionics® data and Auto Guidance technology that uses your desired depth and overhead clearance to easily calculate routes and see a suggested path to follow. The Garmin ECHOMAP Ultra Chartplotter/Fish Finder Combo also supports optional Panoptix LiveScope LVS12 sonar (no black boxes required) plus the full line of Panoptix all-seeing sonar transducers (select styles). Built-in Quickdraw Contours lets you instantly create personalized fishing maps onscreen with 1' contours, live, in real time, as you fish. Tailor them to fit your needs. These are your maps – you own them. Keep the data to yourself or share it with the Quickdraw Community on the Garmin Connect™ online community. Optional map upgrades include BlueChart g3 Vision charts and LakeVü g3 Ultra maps. These add features such as elevation shading of bottom structure, which provides more 3D relief than contours alone, along with satellite imagery and more. This Garmin fish finder delivers best-in-class performance and features to take your fishing experience further than ever.

I'm a Lowrance guy, but have heard great things about the Garmins as well.
Also, if you're getting one of these, they have mounts on sale also. Their lockdown one is very nice and stable.
For me it's a point of saving time.
With the new technology now, it cuts down on a lot of boating time and engine hours. Side scan alone marking some rock piles or brush 30-40 ft off to the side probably saves me 10-15 minutes of cruising around. Multiply that out a modest 6 times and you've gained an hour of fishing instead of searching.
I ordered this today (I was going to post this deal as well). Solid deal for the 106SV and 54 series transducer.
This combo is on clearance because it is being replaced by the 106sv packaged with the 56 series transducer, which will cost about $1k more (not worth it in my opinion, so I bought this bundle). Great deal, especially if you are able to add the veterans/first-reaponder discount of an additional 10% off!
Also, the livescope is also on sale for $999, which I ordered as well.
When paired with the 106sv, this livescope sonar will bring a whole host of benefits to boating/fishing. I also plan on making a rig for it, so I can use it while ice-fishing next year in the off-season.

I've been out of the market for while but good god $1500 is a good buy?! Does it come with a Bjob attachment?

I just updated the post with a link. It's the first version of the livescope, but if you look at the difference in specs, it is hard to justify going with v2 for the substantial increase in price.
On a kayak, you wouldn't need a 10" screen - unless you have trouble seeing.
The 106sv and 126sv have faster processors (more snappy) but are otherwise very similar relating to features.
Thanks, yeah 9" screen would be good enough, I get by with my 5" screen with DI only now, looking to upgrade, just wanted to make sure there wasnt anything I'd be missing outside of larger screen size.
It's pretty standard pricing at this point for the gt54. The gt56 will hopefully be discounted in the coming year. If you know this garment product number is, you go from the 52, 54, 56... And same way when back used to be the 3436.
I've been in Garmin user since 2013 and been life scoping since like 2017-18. After Lawrence had a patent dispute with Garmin over the down imaging, Garmin used to call it down view inside view but the technology wasn't truly side imaging. Garmin stepped at the game with panoptics and now lowrance and hummingbird have to pay a license fee for that live technology. I love when people say oh I use this version of that version, it's really garments and they are just wiping the floor with people these days. With that said I've been using this stuff for so many years and I have a lot of people out with configurations and things like that, check out my website, jaimeastin.com. Free questions. Not promoting my YouTube or anything like that, just really just saying if you have any questions I have probably a little bit more knowledge than a lot of people just because I've been in the game for so long and I've been supporting a lot of different users around the world.

Think I'll go with the 93SV.
I run a 73sv on my 10.5' kayak, great size. 9" will be good, I just wanted a smaller one for my smaller kayak, smaller battery etc.

Aside from smaller screen size is there any difference between all of these (126SV, 106SV, 93SV)?
Going on a kayak, the 9" screen should be plenty for me.
