Bought a new GPS/fishfinder, going to hook it up to my VHF for emergencies and when (if) I ever go fishing. The Lowrance "should" hook up to my standard horizon. Planning on mounting the control head to the Left of the steering wheel. Maybe to the right just underneath the side window - But I would have to buy the RAM mount for it.
Transducer mounting. How do I go about it? I know where it goes, but what are people's preferences? Direct mount or using a "transom saver" block of plastic? I would mount it directly to the hull, but I would like to be able to see the temperature as well.
Also looking for how to run the cable from the unit up and into the boat, and attach it to the transom.
