High dollar Motor Guide

Travis put me on to this mount and it works great on my Lund. Looks a little different on a pointy nose boat. I looked at Da'Ducer and it looks great but for the money this was the best for me. I'm still satisfied after about a year with it. I also mounted the Xi5 myself. It was easy. If an old arthritic geezer like me can do it, anyone can.

Yes sir. Cost is definitely a factor.

I have the same one. I wish I had gotten podunks though. Mine has popped out a couple times and it rocks around when I kick the troller up in high.

Mine has a keeper that slides into place to prevent from coming out. Your's doesn't????

Mine too. Never had any problem like that.

Yep but it didn't hold it in when I bumped into a stump lol. The little tab bent up. I guess it's better that it jumped out but now it does it with the troller in high

I'd try replacing it with a metal holder. Shouldn't be too hard to construct with parts from your local hardware store.

So I found a way to mount the HDi transducer to the motor. The challenge is the overhang over the bow without interfering with the roller. This will be a project as the Xi5 arrives tomorrow.
