Humminbird HELIX 12 MSI+ GPS G4N CHO

Features

• Control Head Only Model: This model does not include a transducer, making it ideal for connecting to Built-in MEGA Imaging on Minn Kota trolling motors, accessory transducers like MEGA 360 Imaging, or sharing sonar data from an existing Humminbird Ethernet network.
  
• Keypad Control: Master the HELIX with the touch of a button. The user-friendly menu system, operated by soft key controls, allows you to reliably access preloaded views and operate your fish finder in any conditions.
  
• MEGA Side Imaging+: Experience crystal-clear side imaging up to 200 feet on either side of your boat. This feature provides 20% more detail and 60% more range capability than standard MEGA Side Imaging sonar, helping you locate more fish and structures.
  
• MEGA Down Imaging+: Achieve unprecedented underwater clarity with down imaging coverage up to 200 feet below your boat. This feature offers 20% more detail and 60% more depth capability than standard MEGA Down Imaging sonar.
  
• Dual Spectrum CHIRP Sonar: See what's below before you cast with highly detailed fish arches and a clear view of fish-holding structures and the bottom. Powered by the proprietary Low-Q CHIRP transducer, Dual Spectrum offers two search modes: Wide Mode for maximum coverage and Narrow Mode for focusing on the finest details.
  
• Internal GPS and Humminbird Basemap: Navigate with confidence using the enhanced basemap, which provides a clear view of underwater terrain and surrounding points of interest. Identify buoys, day markers, hazards, marinas, contours, depth markers, and more. Includes charts of over 10,000 lakes and coastal coverage for the continental U.S.
  
• Premium Chart Compatible: Humminbird offers a comprehensive range of premium chart options for anglers. Get a complete view of the underwater world with optional charts from Humminbird's LakeMaster® and CoastMaster™ products, as well as compatible Navionics® charts.
  
• AutoChart Live: Create real-time maps of your fishing spots with access to patented Humminbird® LakeMaster® features. Map depth contours, bottom hardness, and vegetation as you drive your boat. Comes with eight (8) hours of built-in recording time and is compatible with AutoChart Zero Line SD cards for virtually endless AutoChart Live mapping capacity.
  
• One-Boat Network Compatible: Many Humminbird models seamlessly integrate with Minn Kota motors and Cannon Optimum downriggers, unlocking additional features and capabilities. Enhance your time on the water with the exclusive boat control and fish-catching features of the One-Boat Network.
  
• Ethernet Networking: High-speed Ethernet enables you to build a powerful, professional-grade fishing system. Easily connect multiple fish finders or upgrade with add-on technologies like Minn Kota i-Pilot Link and Humminbird CHIRP Radar.
  
• Bluetooth: Control compatible Talon and Raptor shallow water anchors, as well as Cannon Optimum downriggers, directly from your Humminbird screen. Additional features include wireless software updates via the Humminbird FishSmart App and display of smartphone notifications on your Humminbird.
  
• NMEA 2000 Networking Built-In: Connect an accessory NMEA 2000 network to your control head for even more information. From boat performance to weather and water conditions, NMEA 2000 networking helps you make sense of it all.
