Alright new plan.. saw the cornfield air hose mount you had referenced Rickie and that looks like something I can live with. I also keyed in that you have said multiple times that dedicated DI is very advantageous so I think I will go with a Helix 9 DI / GPS combo. mount the transducer to ulterra using the air hose mount. networked to the 998c SI @ console.

decent set up?

Or would you all suggest moving the 998 to bow and getting a Helix 10 SI combo for console? (sounds like more hassle, and I don't need si necessarily at bow and would miss out on the dedicated DI)

Sorry for beating this thing to death... it has obviously consumed me today.

thx!
