I have my 798 on the front of my boat with the transducer on the TM. I did this so I could take advantage of all the features while I am fishing. But I also have a GPS on the console for when I am driving the boat and a HB 717 located in the back of the boat so I can see what depth I am running in. I think it is a preference thing as to where you would be more satisfied with the location of the unit. Pros and cons either way you go.
I would put it on the console, with the transducer on the back. Then use a RAM mount so you can swivel around when upp front. Side imaging works much better with big motor. I like 2.5 to 4 MPH.
