Subject: 1 sonar 2 transducers


I'm looking to upgrade to some quality electronics. I only want to but 1 unit , but would like to run it from the back and front of my boat ( at different times ) . If I have 2 transducers , one mounted up front and the other in the back, is it possible to move the unit to different locations?

yes as long as you have power cords for both locations. By the time you do the bracket, power cord & the extra tranducer though you may very well be at the cost of a cheaper unit that would come complete. I would not do very good myself moving my nits from one end of the boat to another.

If I get what you are asking, yes.
You would have to run power (and gps, if applicable) to both locations too. If you put your Depthfinder on a Johnny Ray or Ram mount it can easily be moved between both locations.
As far as the gps puck goes you could mount it centrally in your boat and get an "extension cord" so the puck cord could reach each location. This would have a cord laying around the boat though....I wouldn't like that.
So, to do it correctly, I believe, you be looking at purchasing an additional power cord and gps puck, if applicable. As well as, 2 bases (i.e. Ram mounts)

Yes. You'll have to have two power cords also, one for the bow and one for the console or wherever you put it. As for gps, that would add another dimension if you wanted that.

With my luck I would drop it in the lake when moving it around. Maybe something to think about. I lost my cell phone last year!! lol
