Went to Cabelas and saw a decent ff for a decent priced so I grabbed it. Its a Humminbird 561 Di. And the chapter coordinator for the DFW chapter of HOW had an accessory he refused to take home from the last HOW event and made me put into my truck so I decided to give it a try. Lol. Hopefully it'll work. All i need now is a way to attach it. This is an all inclusive unit, head unit, transducer and power supply are all in one. My deer feeder battery is a bit heavy so I am thinking about upgrading to a lithium battery. Oh and if isn't obvious from the pics the arm the transducer is attached to is flexible so I can move it where ever i need/want it.

Transducer looks backwards to me?

I like the idea of the using the flex arm! Looks like a very neat and clean installation. Good job...

Those X-wings look pretty cool.

Yes its the malibu x wing, and after today i can say this: if any malibu guys or anyone else for that matter wants to trade me a Ram or scotty system for this thing i wouldn't tell ya no. It just gets in my way. I think i am a bit to big to be using it. It wasn't comfortable for me. Cool idea but just ain't gonna work for me.
