I didn’t have to adjust the sensitivity too much. Charting too fast can get you a lot of duplication and noise. I usually run chart speed at the same as mph I am paddling. An important trick for kayak anglers especially is to slow your chart speed. On the water the unit performed the imaging functions really well. If I do decide I don’t like it I could always paint it I suppose. Not sure how much I love or hate that yet. The transducer is also not the standard black but rather a vivid blue.

Trying to mount multiple transducers (Structure Scan etc) can be problematic and raise the install complexity. The transducer is an all in one on this unit so it works well for a kayak setup as well. If deck space is an issue, a RAM Mount system with a 1.5” ball system should work great for a single point mount.
I like the sturdier horizontal mounting hardware on the seven inch but that may pose a space problem for smaller kayaks. The larger screen allows me to do that and not have to squint or zoom as often. I typically run mapping/DI when paddling from spot to spot and then when I slow down to fish switch over to DI/200kHz split. The HOOK-7 has multiple screen views to choose from so you can mix and match what you want to look at.
