The question I would ask if you plan to cast more than you plan to troll. (Given the kicker, I'm guessing trolling is a large part of the game plan) If you want to do more casting I'd suggest looking into the Fish Hawks. Their front deck is bigger than the platforms you are suggesting which makes a difference when casting.

For the electronics, there is absolutely no need to have DI/SI on the bow sonar. SI only really functions at 2MPH-8MPH, so you'll rarely use it, if ever up there. Given the Lowrance is modular it probably doesn't matter. Also, I'd consider getting a bigger screen on the bow and an expensive RAM mount. Quite simply, this is the one you are squinting at while casting, so bigger is easier to read and not as hard on your eyes over the long haul.
