    Help with thru hull transducer placement

    That’s really helpful thanks. I tried posting this question on THT but I think I can’t post pics as I have not had 10 posts - at least I got an error message saying I couldn’t post a URL until I’d had 10 posts (no URL in my post). Yeah I am not getting anything like that quality of image at...

    Help with thru hull transducer placement

    Help with thru hull transducer placement

    Anyone added a trolling motor (salt water) to Fisherman (216)?

    Yes I did this the same way on my 216. I put a lithium battery in the console where the head usually sits. I mounted the motor on a plate on the nose. The only problem I have yet to solve is that the Nav lights have to move. I have not figured out where to put them. I have used the hole in the...

    Anyone added a trolling motor (salt water) to Fisherman (216)?

    Hey guys I have a Fisherman 216 and am trying to bow - mount a MinnKota. I am struggling to find a way back through to the helm to connect the power (battery is in the c/console). Keen to bow mount a second screen also so a few wires need to get back from the bow. Any advice would be appreciated
