I had no problems seeing in front of the boat when I had my 360 on both port (360 only) and starboard (360 + LVS32 on a pole) sides at any given time and not mounted to the trolling motor when when I had the Terrova. Honestly, I think that the transducer was in the water about a foot or so (not too terribly deep), and I don't remember seeing any shadows from the trolling motor. While I do have the 360 and LVS on the trolling motor right now, I'm working on a new pole mount for my LVS32 without the 360 in case I decide to go back to manually aiming--and I probably will when i go back to spider rigging.
If I'm not at work or taking kids to their activities, you might find me on "The Rez" fishing. If not there, I could be in the garage working on my boat.
