I wouldn't trade my Elite 5 HDI for anything! Except for an Elite 7 but that monster would look ridiculous on my 2004 model Hobie Outback! It all depends on how well you know how to use each respective finder.

Also consider type of transducers and their respective costs. Chirp requires a more expensive transducer for down scan imaging.
