Mike, that is the downside to the 360 Bow sonar for a lot of musky guys who cast. Right now, the 360 Bow is set up only for cable drive trolling motors. The deal with the 360 is that it needs to be attached to a fixed trolling motor shaft in order to maintain the proper orientation to objects and structure around the boat. The whole shaft of an electric steer trolling motor turns, which doesn't allow for this orientation. If a guy has a cable steer TM, and compatible Humminbird electronics already, the cost of the 360 isn't bad...$1K. Only when you don't have the necessary TM and electronics, and need to acquire them, is the entry cost difficult to swallow. There are Lowrance and Garmin options for 360 imagery that might work for an electric steer TM, but I'm not as familiar with them. Brian
