If you utilize the gimbal mount that the unit sets in simply loosen the two thumb nuts on left and right side, disconnect the cable collector from the back and unplug the cables and you have removed the unit.
If you have a rem mount simply loosen the ram with the hand knob, pop the the top mount off the ram mount, disconnect the cable collector from the back and unplug the cables and you have removed the unit.
Take mine off every time I get out of water in less than a minute. Use first method above, although I have a ram mount as well.
Good to know, haven't got boat yet. But I want the 1198 when I purchase and want to travel some.
Check out the durasafe locks for the ram mounts and your depth finder.
I use a quick release swivel mount. works good for me.
You get one, go here and get one of these.

Nice boat, looks like it has plenty of room.
When you coming down to fish? FWB
