We got some nice upgrades for the boat today and some routine maintenance done. The trolling motor is now linked up with our Lowrance at the cockpit through the NEMA2000. That is going to be sweet when we get on the water. Hoping to knock out the fish hawk install tomorrow night after work. Any one got any good input on mounting the fishhawk transducer?? Weather depending we’ll prefish Friday for the buffalo bill this Saturday, who else is planning on fishing it!?

For the hawk ducer from what I remember, not too close to other ducers and not to close to any engines. Follow their instructions to the best of your ability and you should be all good. Looks like you got some fun work to do :)

Gotta love new toys!

That Fish Hawk won't work on your boat. I'll take it off your hands though.

super jealous of he Fish Hawk and the trolling motor tie in!! I originally going to fish the Buffalo Bill but haven't had enough time to get out on the lake, fishing for me so far this year is anything but stellar and have had to many unexpected costs this year so far so I am going to pass on most of the tourneys this year. as of now planning on doing the summer series but will have to see how things pan out. I should be out fishing Saturday if the weather holds out and have a friend in from out of town so hope to get her some nice salmon. Good luck Bill!!

I mounted my fishhawk the furthest I could on the starboard side. It was just enough to clear the safety ladder and doesn’t interfere with the headunit ducer. Photo below is before I mounted but it would mount between my strap and my ladder
