MOUNT PANOPTIX TRANSDUCER ON TERROVA

I want to mount a PANOPTIX PS21-TR on the barrel of a Terrova. I want the cable to ride in the channel on the motor shaft. I'm not sure if the cable will fit in the channel and Garmin was unable to provide the cable dimensions. Anyone have experience with this setup?

Is this a older Terrova? I don’t believe the newest version of the Terrova with lift assist has the channel

It wont fit anyway. The ps21 has 2 cables. It has its own power supply.

Check out Cornfield Crappie Gear. Have my PS 21 mounted on my Terrova using that solution. Wires are external but no problems after 2 years.

Thanks for both replies, that's the info I was looking for.
I thought the 2 cables would be too large, but I didn't know the dimensions.
I saw the Cornfield Crappie Gear. I guess that's my only choice.

nope, there's always podunkideas.com, that's Rickie's site, and get his Da-Ducer device.

Rickie makes one just for Panoptix.

Thanks for the info. Where I sit is well below the gunwales and too far back to make it practical for me.

I fish 80 % of time in back of the boat. That is why the mount on the trolling motor works for me. When running parallel to a blow down filled shore. I run a PS 30 Down Vu and a PS 21 combo view on a Garmin GPSMAP 1040. This gives me an efficient crappie finding tool in spring. Which submerged tree is the best that particular day is soon found.

Later in the year when slow trolling cranks or plastics still use rear seat. Humminbird Mega 10 comes into play using the follow the contour option with the I-Link.

When anchored I usually use front seat for jigging purposes. Back to a Garmin product for that.

If I used the front seat the most I think rickie's da ducer would be the best option.

da'ducer apparatus[emoji768] can be mounted anywhere on the boat with close enough proximity to the edge of the boat to fully deploy ...
