    Default SI Install


    If I'm gonna install a SI unit, should I put it up front or on the console?

    i always heard to put them at the console because you will need to be moving somewhere around 5mph for good side scan results

    Why not put it on a bar where you can slide it so you can use it at both places. I have mine fixed that way and i love it.

    mount it on a ram mount so you can use it at the console then turn it around and use it when you are trolling.or buy another transducer, or switch and bass and power wire and you can take it off and move it back and forth.i have mine at the console so i can turn it and see it will i troll it is a 997 though
    The fishing was good,it was the catching that was bad

    optimum speed for optimum side imaging is around 3 mph. I would put it at on the console.
