Trolling motor question

I have a minn kota PV2. How are some of you putting a transducer on it and run the cable to the screen ? looks like you can't attach the cable to the shaft because when you deploy the trolling motor the cable is going to be in the way. :confused:

You have to leave a portion of the cable un strapped from the shaft so the motor can slide up and down. Maybe Scottv will see this and put up a picture of how he did his.....I fished with him yesteday and he had a good set up on his PD.

This is how i have mine, drill a 1/8 hole in the flange, this is ti run a wire tie,run tras. cable up thru center of coil of wire for tm allow about 2foot of play to make sure thers enough when lowering your tm.

Thanks G3 and Mr. Jim

Crappieman i got the minn kota edge on my boat and thats the way i finally did it. Put a giant clamp to secure it and the took some electrical tap and wrapped it several times around the shaft. i have only had 1 instance where it got in the way and cut in half so i keep so wire strippers and electrical tape in the boat but most of the time it stays tight and out of the way and doesnt look to bad if you know what i mean.

See if this helps. http://www.crappie.com/crappie/fishi...-drive-tm.html
