Willing to bet that is extra stuff and he put together a portable set up, his original stuff is most likely in place on his boat.Thumbs Up I have been using a standard FF with ducer mounted on an old trolling motor bracket for my puddle jumper boats for years.

No prob.
By the time I rounded all that up for mine I can just get another 768 and get EZ to build me a bracket. I spring fish out of a small boat alot and could mark a BUNCH of stuff that will be under water within weeks. Would have loved to had all that stuff marked when the water started rising this past spring.
The 768 aint the fanciest but it does what I need for now.Thumbs Up

Most of that gadjet is an old trolling motor with the head and motor removed, the rest is EZ's majic.

Zack, the only thing I am worried about is possible prop wash from the trolling motor.

Wont it be in front of most of the prop wash?? If it were the same depth or close to the same I doubt it will effect it.

It's going to be a little behind the TM, hope it won't affect it tho.
