Thanks for all the help guys!
Ok well got all the electrical items updated and installed today. Traded my old 12 volt Trolling motor in on another slightly used 24 volt Trolling motor 70lbs Thrust with the 12/24 switch option on the foot pedal. 3 New batteries and 3 bank Minn Kota on board batter charger. Installed both 1198 and 998 Humminbird units with ram mounts and transducers on transom and trolling motor, as well as both GPS pucks. Got live well cleaned out and scrubbed. Still can not decide on where to mount Spider riggin mounts though, guess I will try a spot and if I dont like it, move it to another.
Boat should be good to go all this fishing season, unless I have some more bad luck down the road, lets hope not. Cant wait to try out this bigger trolling motor now, should be able to fight wind all day long with this baby! hahahahaha, cause it is beginning to look like it is going to blow all year long now.

Thanks guys for all your helpful suggestions!
Looking good, i see you got the shield saver on the transducer. I need to do a little work to my boat also while it in the garage.
Looks like your ready to go Skeeter. Mount a holder on small piece of plywood and get a brick or something to hold in place. Set it up and get in seat. Move around till you find a comfortable spot to mount them. Check clearance for trolling motor. And it's steering cable.
Looks good Skeeter.Your gonna like those Pro Series Batteries.I am on year number 3 on mine and they are still as strong as they were new.
Yeap got that shield save after researching for about a month on different ones. Its not cheap but its the best one out there.
Yea I thought about that, and probably will do it soon. The steering cable is my only concern as the tm is raised and lowered. Everything else seems to be ok and out of the way as far as measurements go. But yeap going to do what you said and sit in the seat and play around with it a bit. Thanks
Good to hear, my first time using them. All 3 are that brand. My old ones of a different brand lasted from 2006 till now, and were still doing ok, but I knew it was getting close to the end for them. Thanks
Looking good man, should do you a great job, hope it all works and work well too.
Good lookin setup. My 24V trollin motor gets me in more trouble on the lake than my Outboard. LOL Good luck with that rig
You missouri guys really do have some funny looking deer.... :)
