The transducer on the TM does not support Down imaging. Is there any issue with mounting the Elite 7 transducer to the TM?

Hey Mike,
The Elite 7 HDI transducer can be mounted to the trolling motor with the trolling motor adapter cup.
Lowrance HDI Trolling Motor Adapter Cup f/Skimmer XDCR
Model: 000-10978-001
The only issue will be that you can not zip tie the transducer cable to the trolling motor shaft due to the shaft sliding in the shaft sleeve. I have seen some using a spring attached to the top of the motor head and attaching the transducer cable to the spring keeping the transducer cable taunt....

Yeah I knew about that. I got some coiled air hose and plan to use that.
