Thanks Timber Trout.

Thanks Timber Trout

Took the boat to Erie today. He his going to rig that boat boy like a pro !!!!! Pick it up Weds. Such a good rate, real nice guy.

Where's he at?

Got the poly mount. Then he rigged the old one to trolling motor at a heck of a good price. Pic it up thursday can't wait. He lives in BOYD Texas.

Cool.....

He will do you a bangup job. I have seen several of the marine dealers and they don't do so good. One guy I was helping set his depth finder up he had to take it back three times to get it right.

Let me know if he actually figure out a way to get the transducer wire ran under the deck. I have done this twice on a Lowe Stinger (because Lowe ghastly to replace my boat under warranty) and I wasn't even able to pull the old transducer out. It is sandwiched in there pretty good. In the end I just cut the cord on the old cheapo transducer where it came out of the deck and ran the new around the edge of the deck with cable ties. It is an all aluminum boat and I am pretty sure the deck is riveted on. A couple of dollars of conduit would have worked wonders...and I have been told some aluminum boat makers do this...but not Lowe.

Also, that fish finder comes factory rigged. I tried to get them to send me a boat with no electronics installed but they were not running the line at time so they just pulled from inventory. That is one if the reasons I got a lowrance hds 5. I just used the existing lowrance transducer mount. Unfortunately, the cable is different I the baseline models.

I am really interested to see if he gets that cable through.

Will let you know. He is still working on it, pick it up tomorrow. The guy is high speed he will figure it out.

Ernie Doka is a great guy and will do a very proffesional job for you

Picked my boat up to today. He did a nice job. He hooked up my old fish finder to the trolling motor and put my new 597 hummingbird on the console. I will take pics tomorrow. Ernie knows what he is doing.

Pics?
