Yep, that is a nice rig.. A Yamaha 70 should make that a fun ride up front. Congrats again...

Thanks for posting the pic.for me Mark.
Thanks for the replies guys. Got the HDS and Garmin mounted today and shes ready to go.
Yeap 70 is more than it needs but I dont like running anything wide open but like having the extra power if needed.

Looks like a fun boat to fish out of. The fatter and older I get the more trouble I have moving around inside the boat. I like the layout of that one.

You will love the Fortrex. Your right. Have not used it much but it is so much easier to raise and lower than my MK Maxxum . My arthritis and a the bad back are really liking the boat and trolling motor. For the most part get in sit down and go fishing. Both my graphs a Carbon 9 and a Garmin 1022xsv with Panoptix PS22 up front. They wont network but that does not matter. Should have done it years ago.
