Help needed sounder install on bow mount trolling motor

[willradley]

Hi all

I'm was hoping for some advice on installing a sounder to a minn kota trolling motor

Has anyone done this and do they have any photos of how they have done it

I need to understand the wire placement down the trolling motor to the transducer, how do you keep the wiring tidy when the motor is not in use, do you have to keep the excess wire curled up on the deck? how much needs to be cable tied to the shaft itself and where do you cable tie so the motor can still freely go up and down and also allow correct operation and motor rotation when in use

The sounder screen will be positioned on the front deck of my boat so it will be quite close to the minn kota motor itself. The sounder being installed is a lowrance elite 5x DSI

Any help would be appreciated

Will
