Location: Eagan, MN | Nightranger, what did you decide? Did you go for it?? If so, I’m curious how your project went.
Chasintails, this mod hasn’t effected my ability to fish off the side of the boat or figure 8. I’m still happy with the set-up after 5 years. Sometimes wish I had spot lock and follow the contour and all the other things the new motors will do. Someday... I did replace the original rope/handle with the one you suggested from TH. Those original ropes always break at the worst times, like in a big tournament.
As a side note, while the boat is the same, my bow ‘workstation’ keeps evolving. Interesting to see that five year old photo of my bow on this old thread. It’s changed quite a bit and continues to change with the introduction of newer/better technology. Now have my old Onix 10 dedicated to display mapping and a Helix 12 G3 dedicated to displaying the 360 image (soon to be Mega 360) or Mega SI/DI. I’ll also plan to incorporate my Livescope ice bundle somehow someway on the bow once the boat comes out of winter storage. It’s fun and challenging trying to figure out how to set up the bow with this new technology. I’ll need a mobile nuclear power plant in the stern of the boat to power it all eventually. |
