Hi, I’m interested in the Proton 5 system if it’s still available.
Could you send me a private message? I’d like to discuss the system, what’s included, its condition, and your asking price.
Thanks,
Chad

@challe Hi Chad,
Is this the right method for a private message, or would you prefer an email sent to your Gmail address? The system was used twice, for maybe two hours each time, and has all of the accessories one would need to perform some good surveys. We just ended up not having access to the right boat and it isn't getting used, so it should get to someone who will be able to use it, as much as anything else.
I have attached a link to pictures of the equipment and the original invoice, which lists everything in more detail, in case it helps:

Let me know what questions you have and I'll be happy to get back to you. I can be flexible with the pricing to an extent. If you're in the US ( I assume?), the shipping might be a lot or a little (it's HEAVY!), or I might be able to meet you with it if you're in the Northeast.
Regards,
