These are a PIA but they work. Cabela's -- Portable Transducer Bracket
Yea I saw those but was looking for something more permenant but able to stow it in the boat as well, maby like a fold down mount of some type. I have heard of them being mouted to a heavy hose. In that case it would remain deployed just under the water during use and raised up by the bow rise while running.
I cut down an old Motor Guide bracket. Transducer mounted on a pvc pipe and now deploys and lifts like a trol motor. Works fine.

I'm doing the same thing bigrjigr. Mine ships Monday. Are you mounting an SI type transducer? And why not the TM? :confused:Quote:

Hey CP...what's the reddish coiled cord for...???Quote:
