| I'm looking at putting an 80lb terrova i-pilot and Humminbird 999 on my used boat I just bought. What accessories do I need for these two items that will not come with them? For example, it sounds like people recommend a ram mount for the Humminbird plus a lake map chip. Any tips for installation would be appreciated.
Thanks for the help.

| To clarify my question, here is a list of things it sounds like I need so far.
Terrova:
-60amp circuit breaker or inline fuse
-Ram trolling motor stabilizer
-Marinco plug and receptacle
-6 gauge wire from plug to batteries
-jumper cable between batteries
Humminbird
-3amp inline fuse
-map card
-ram mount
Anything i'm missing? |

Location: St Paul, Minnesota | I'm installing an 80lb thrust 60 inch shaft Terrova with iPilot Link and I'm getting a Humminbird to run the iPilot Link with and here's what I've had to get:
-Minn Kota MKA-47 Universal Mounting Braket (Terrova screw holes didn't line up with the stock holes on my Ranger 185vs)
-Minn Kota MKR 18 Trolling Motor Plug and Receptacle (because my old trolling motor input is no longer carried by Minn Kota)
-Rubber matting to clean up the appearance of where all the fittings for my trolling motor will go and to cover any old screw holes that are no longer being used.
-Lakemaster 5.0 chip
-There's some cord required to connect all hummingbird XX9 series units (859,899,959,999,1159,199) to the Terrova. This is a new requirement because they changed the units over last year's xx8 series that you could plug in directly. My store doesn't have the cord in yet so I don't know the name...
Additionally I'm getting a Humminbird 959 CI HD unit that will run off the internal transducer on the Terrova. So because I have a 997 CI HD w/down and side imaging my secondary unit is the x59 series. If you already have a primary unit for your helm I'd suggest saving the money and getting an 859/959 CI HD unit because you'll use the simple transducer on the Terrova and any additional features such as down or side imaging are overkill unless you do a mod to mount the secondary transducer.
Food for though, message me if you have any additional questions, good luck!
