  10. Warm surface water will go North to Canada & cold water will back fill the South shore of LO. jetsled
  11. yup. happy wife, happy fishing life! great video! FishHawk & Simrad all mounted up & ready for sea-trial this weekend. Luckily existing transom hole was already 1" in diameter. Little silicon & some 5200...
  12. NOTE: only 1 screw holding new totalscan for mock-up...
  13. Spoke with Simrad. Recommend starboard side due to clockwise prop of out-drive. So started removing old transducer & doing a basic mock-up. Leveled the boat on trailer. Using level as straight edge the new total scan is either slightly tilled up or down, but only by 3/16". I have a transducer board for the port side ready to go for FishHawk. See below pics. Starboard side backer board will need to be carefully thought-out....
  14. copy that. going to re-think it. youtube videos show installation on both sides thou. thanks!
  15. Yup. Got them for upgrade. Thanks! Sent from my SM-G900V using Lake Ontario United mobile app
  16. Yes, I'd mount the simrad transducer on the port side! I'd mount the FishHawk on the opposite side as I have heard rumors of chirp causing interference. that is my game plan. big thanks!
  17. Copy that! mounting mine this weekend along with simrad transducer. got a transducer question in the "this old boat" section on port side vs. starboard side. check it out & tell what u think.... thanks, jetsled
  18. Great video. Fish Hawk display mounted on port side downrigger? Not on dash to monitor & adjust speed? thanks, jetsled
  19. Gents, Dropped 1200 bucks for new electronics (fish hawk & simrad go7 xse w/ totalscan transducer). See below pic for reference. Green Painters tape = thru hull fitting 30" up from transom. wash down pump source. Red circle transducer coming off! old fish finder. I believe this one gets air interference from thru hull on plane. Blue circle transducer staying (backup (older) GPS/Fishfinder/Depthfinder). i'm thinking of installing the Fish Hawk transducer in Red circle area. Speed from Fish Hawk on plane is not important as both GPS unit will display speed. When trolling, thru hull fitting interference should NOT affect performance of fish hawk (i hope). i'm thinking of installing the Simrad total scan transducer on the port side. no thru hulls or anything to cause interference of any kind. nice clean water for total scan transducer and clean picture! opinions or ? big thanks, jetsled
