This is VERY sound advice. However, the newer transducers being shipped have a more robust solid round cable instead of the old thinner more flat cable and from what I am told Garmin is now saying you can use zip ties except at the pivot point on the trolling motor. They want the electrical tape there for more give I guess. All that being said, I would still just use the tape.
