mapping last year before purchasing the GoFree WIFI-1 Module. It works just the same and is just as accurate for mapping with SonarChart Live.

This small unit can easily be mounted to boats of any size and also doubles as a very capable sonar fish finder. I was impressed with this unit’s capability and the cost makes it affordable for everyone.

I mounted mine to a piece of wood and clamped it to my Power-Pole, but it can easily be mounted to any boat for a more permanent installation. The sonar

function of this unit alone is worth the investment of approximately $200, but the ability to also map your own lake makes it even better.

MAPPING

As long as you are getting bottom contact as you drive your boat, the depth and location is being recorded and will make your map better. Slowly idling is a good way to make sure you get all of the

data needed for accurately

mapping, but I have been

driving on plane at 20 to 30

mph and have still recorded

excellent data.

I also keep my unit

recording while I am on my

trolling motor fishing. If I do

this over the course of a

day, I cover a long distance

of shoreline and my

map will get even better

without any extra work.
