I am very close to pulling the trigger on a 2027 326. I have previously posted on deciding between a Regulator 31 vs the GW 326. Though the Regulator has standard features I really desire such as a lithium battery setup and standard Seakeeper Ride I think the GW 326 is a bit cheaper and fits better with my anticipated use. I visit both factories in October and may still go with Regulator. I plan on ordering GW before the factory $7500 incentive expires November 1st. The boat will be both a family cruising as well as a significant fishing venture. Here are specifications and options I am planning. I welcome comments, criticisms, suggestions, etc. Any and all welcome.

Here are some additional questions
- Is a Siren 3 Pro system standard or an option?
- Does the power operate through battery switch and key or via a fob?
- As I plan on combining both deep drop and trolling fishing do you have thoughts about combining these two transducers as suggested by Google AI
- Deep Dropping: Airmar B175L (Low CHIRP / 20° Tilt)
- The Role: This is your deep-water anchor. Running at 40–60 kHz with 1kW of power, its low frequency punches through 1,000+ feet of saltwater with ease. It will give you a clear, crisp reading of the actual bottom structure, hard vs. soft floor transitions, and bottom-dwelling targets.
- Trolling: Airmar B175HW (High-Wide CHIRP / 20° Tilt)
- The Role: This is your pelagic hunter. Operating at 150–250 kHz with a massive, constant 25-degree beam width, it covers a huge amount of area in the top 300 feet of the water column. While trolling for meat fish over deep water, it creates the ultimate spread-map to spot bait balls, billfish, and gamefish flashing under your wake.
