A thought to reinforce what Stratosfs5 says above. If you have sufficient room somewhere around the console, install it on a ram mount. When you move to the bow to fish, rotate the fishfinder so you can periodically turn to take a peek. I have this setup for my triton and war eagle with a ram mount and stern-mounted transducer on each. Depending on which boat I use, I hotswap the 998c head. Not the most ideal, but cost- effective and works. Besides, when I am at the bow, I am mostly fishing...not watching the screen.
I also have a 798c hdsi, I intended to mount up front. Just found the current configuration meets my needs.
