Update: Less than three weeks after starting this thread my wife was diagnosed with Stage 4 Adenocarcinoma. I did not get to resume fishing, nor mount the Xi5. I did not want to. God's got cards he holds close to his chest, and he laughs at our plans. I had to put dad in assisted living so I could devote my time to caring for Robin. I spent every hour I could with her, but her time was too short. She put up a valiant fight. I lost her on December 26th, our 39th wedding anniversary. I'd give everything I have and everything I will ever have to be able to hug her just one more time. My priorities have been realigned. I am not yet over her, but I am starting to come out of it. I have stepped away from my agency, and take time for myself now, something that I didn't previously do. I have a 93 UHD/54 coming, and I'll mount it and the trolling motor in the coming months. SO the question remains, if I am not mounting the LiveScope transducer on the trolling motor, who now are the manufacturers of stand-alone articulating LiveScope transducer mounts?
Guys, pray to your Lord and Savior that he takes you first. Surviving a spouse...I wouldn't wish it on my worst enemy.
