The Sonic hub requires a NEMA network not an ethernet network like the LSS-1 units require (FYI) so you dont have to worry about the network being full. I am not sure what the new boats are coming with but I think it is just the Eyra that got the retractable straps? Also think about getting some livewell lights installed as well. Not sure if that is a stock option now or not but the cost is minimal and a lot better then doing it yourself trust me. lolLast edited by sdfd504 on August 7th, 2011, 6:17 pm, edited 1 time in total.
