B&G Zeus 9 vs Simrad NSS 9...final decision

Must make decision ASAP ...

It's obvious with Zeus that I get Sailsteer but...does NSS offer anything not provided by Zeus?

Either one will be the 9" model and will be paired with Simrad/BG 4G radar, AIS, two repeaters and AP.

I like to fish offshore as much as race so fish finder capability is about as important as lay lines ....

So, does NSS provide anything not provided by Zeus?

Thanks!

Re: B&G Zeus 9 vs Simrad NSS 9...final decision

I talked with Tom (Navico rep) and he says Zeus and NSS hardware is identical, only the software is different. If I want fish finding capability with the Zeus, I'll need to spend an extra $599 for a sonar hub that I don't have to spend with the NSS (fish finding is built in).

For me, pretty sure I'll go with the Simrad evo NSS9.....pretty sure.....cause I like fish...
