OP Barn Extreme Angler B Joined: May 2002 Posts: 2,891 McKinney, TX	Anyone have a Hydrowave on a BassCat Cougar? I am trying to figure out where patch into for the power? I looked behind the plate on the deck where the trolling motor plugs in but there isn't enough room to reach anything. Any suggestions? I suck worse at trying to install electronics than I do at fishing.

I have a Cougar and I ran the wires through the top cap at the same place the depth finder wires go through and wired it up behind the trolling motor plug in plate. Pretty easy install.

What did you tap into? All I have are the wires to the TM plug. I figured that was too many volts.
