Okay, I've decided to upgrade my 1652 G3 with a new I pilot trolling motor and fish finder. I do not know a lot about these things so I'm asking for help. Currently I am running a 40# 12volt foot controlled TM with a Helix 7 SI GPS.

I'm looking for a TM that has remote, I-pilot link and foot control capabilities. I understand, I may need to go up to a 24volt system (above 55#) although I'm limited on battery space. Also, need a good fish finder to link the TM to, thinking bow mount on new finder and put the current transom mounted Helix 7 at the console.

I'm on a rough budget of about $3000 here, any advice would be very much appreciated. I will send pics of my current setup to help with suggestions, especially if we start discussing a 24 volt system for the TM. Thanks in advance!!
