My X85 just quit displaying anything on screen. Can hear sounds, no visual. Anyone looking to sell one that is in good condition?
I might have one for sale, but I can't get at it until after the 1st of may as my boat is in storage and the person storing it won't get back from 'Zona until then. I also have to purchase a replacement (upgrade), which I tried to do yesterday, but got word that they are out of stock.
I have it (X85) as a bow mount and initially had it hooked up to the MinKota internal transducer, which didn't work very well, and then bought an after market Ducer (because the original one left with my old boat... duh!), which doesn't work very well either, and interferes with my rear 'Ducer. So if you have your original transducer from your X-85, and you can wait till May, I'd give it to you for about $50.00 + shipping as req'd.

Behr,
Would take off your hands immediately, $75 plus shipping if you can get at it. I can't wait that long. Any ideas, let me know, thanks. My cell #815-685-5829.

I have an x-85 also.
I took it off the boat when I upgraded several years ago.
If interested, I will hook it up to verify everything is still in correct working order
( it was fine when I took it off the boat).

If Willow Creeker's deal falls through, I have an X 85 sitting right here that worked perfectly when I took it off the boat to upgrade. You can e-mail me at mandj@hughes.net if you want it. Don't mean to horn in on Willow Creeker, so please check him out first.

I happen to have one also, if all your other deals fall thru you can PM me.
Go with one of these other guys Schrof, if you haven't already... there is no way I can get at my boat until ater the 1st of May. Thanks for the offer, though.

If any of you guys have an x85 that you would be willing to let go for fairly inexpensive, I might be interested. I have one that is not working right now. I have all the hardware on my boat, I just need the unit.
Thanks,
Steve

Go on Ebay and get either a X65 X75 or X85 head unit. You will prefer the X85 put all are compatible with your transducer and power plug.
Some of these units sell for ridiculessly high prices and some will go for a steal.
Useully you will find one on Ebay missing the transducer and selling cheap.
Some are pratically brand new.
I wish Lowrances new products were as good as these.
