Dual mount for 1198; Terrova mounted transducer...
Well I finished my boat project for the week. I now have two separate mounting locations for my 1198. Two separate transducers and gps pucks. I can mount it in the back for trolling and place it in the front for bass fishing, drop shot'n, and crappie jigging. I was able to mount the SI transducer on the trolling motor with the Transducer Shield and Saver and had to take the Terrova apart so I could run the wire up the grove on the shaft. It made for a real nice looking mount and no wires dangling everywhere. I can't wait to give it a try. I can also remove the RAM mount and just leave the ball on the front of the boat when I am not fishing from the front. It should work real well. Hope to try it soon.

The terrova wire mounting idea came from a Crappie.com member from this post.. Glad I saw that post or I would have never thought about it.. Thanks!
