Humminbird APEX 13 MSI+ VX — 13" Full-HD Chartplotter & Fishfinder with Transducer

Humminbird APEX 13 MSI+ VX — Complete 13" Sonar & Chartplotter Bundle

The Humminbird APEX 13 MSI+ VX is the complete, ready-to-fish package in the APEX 13 lineup — pairing the 13-inch full-HD APEX display with a MEGA Side Imaging+™ transducer for out-of-the-box sonar performance at the highest resolution Humminbird offers. If you want the full APEX 13 experience without sourcing a separate transducer, this is the bundle to specify.

Powered by a dual-core processor and the Cross Touch® Interface, the APEX 13 MSI+ VX delivers the same processing capability and networking depth as the larger APEX 16 — in a more compact 13-inch form factor that fits a wider range of helm layouts.

Best Use Cases

• Anglers who want a complete, high-performance 13" sonar and chartplotter solution without sourcing a separate transducer
• Helm builds where a 16" display is too large but full APEX sonar capability — including MEGA Imaging+ — is still required
• Boats running Minn Kota trolling motors or Cannon downriggers who want One-Boat Network™ integration in a compact package
• Freshwater and inshore saltwater applications where side imaging coverage and chart accuracy are priorities
• Multi-display setups where the APEX 13 MSI+ serves as a dedicated sonar station alongside a larger chartplotter

Parts Desk Insights

• The MSI+ VX bundle includes the MEGA Side Imaging+™ transducer — the key difference from the APEX 13 CHO version. If you already have a compatible transducer, the CHO variant saves money without sacrificing display or networking capability.
• The APEX 13 and APEX 16 share the same 1920 x 1080 resolution — the 13" screen actually has higher pixel density, delivering sharp, detailed sonar and chart images in a smaller footprint.
• The dedicated 2kW AIRMAR transducer channel means you can add a high-power offshore sonar transducer alongside the included MSI+ unit if your fishing evolves toward deeper water.
• At this price point, confirm your helm cutout dimensions and 12V power supply capacity before ordering — dual-channel sonar draws more current than single-channel units.
• Front-mount dash kit and gimbal mount are both included, giving you installation flexibility from the box.
