I bought a Lowrance elite-4x HDI FF for my yak and a humminbird gel cel battery to power it.
Thru-Hull mount of transducer is not desirable with a HDI/DSI sonar. Scupper hole mount is not for me, as my gear and fat butt will push my NuCanoe to near the 400lb threshhold where scupper plugs are required.
That leaves me with an over the side transducer arm mount.
I'm considering the Yakattack cellblok to connect to a side rail. Buying a ram ball mount and a transducer arm. It's expensive... $60 for the cellblok, $42 for the arm, and $8 for the ball mount.
But it's portable.... Quick take off for transport. It fits my needs in being relatively simple. And even a poor handyman like me can make this work.
Opinions?
Also... White size connectors do you use for quick connects to the humminbird gel cell? F1 or F2? I have bare wire on my FF, need to attach one set of quick connects, and want to buy the right one.
Thanks all.
