Moving the flush mount bow graph....

[Cbump]

So after a few weeks in the new boat, I don't like the flush mount graph due to the Ultrex lines covering it and making it hard to see. How hard would it be to move it to one of the raised mounts that go over the pedal tray? Would I be able to buy a piece to cover the hole the graph would be coming out of?

I did this. Precision Sonar and Bass Boat Technologies both make the mounting plate. Vexus makes a blank for less, but it isn't sturdy enough to mount a graph in my opinion. I like Dek-it mounts for over the tray, but if I remember correctly finding one wide enough to clear the pedal tray was an issue.

That looks great

I also just did mine with precision sonar mounts. Worked great and very solid.

Your not allowed to use a bungee to secure your Garmin cover! That’s my idea.

Cornfield crappie makes a very good one that is 13” wide on the inside. It also comes predrilled and tapped for most gimbal brackets.

They look slick, but $22.75 via USPS or $43.50 for UPS, to ship a 8" single monitor mount seems a little pricey from KY to MO....

I had no idea what the shipping would be. I picked mine up at the shop where it was made.

I just put a clamp on the cable to keep it from blocking the viewP-Clamp TM.jpg

That seems easiest. No issues with doing that I assume?

Cbump, if you decide to move your graph you fill the hole with starboard or go to Wally world and buy a cutting board for a few bucks and cut to fit and paint any color you like. Works very well, my buddy used the cutting board on the dash of his Ranger 198 P and mounted the bracket onto it to get it above the wheel and looks great.

I have the Ghost TM. No exposed wires, no excess length of cable, no additional wires. Cable lays right in the groove designed for it.
Not a bunch of zip ties all over the place. No cable sock to cover nothing. No clutter. Best of all, nothing to block the view of the flush mounted Lowrance HDS Live 9.
Personally I cant stand the look of the clutter of multiple units.

Cool. I’ll just change trolling motor then. Lol

I think we all should! HAHA

Here is what I did:
Removed the phillips head screw and put a 1/4 x 20 SS bolt in with SS clamp. But what you can't see is that I have two nuts on the back side of the clamp. These nuts serve to take up some space in the counter sunk hole in the plastic trim piece so it can be tightened down.

LOL....You would be happy dude if you did change the TM'er....That was not a solution I was offering up, but a great response, regardless! I loved it.
Thanks Cbump for making me laugh out loud at work.....
