    Question Ghost owners: How are you running wires?

    Hello Ghost owners/BBC,

    I'm trying to mount a LiveSight transducer on my Ghost. How are you guys running transducer wires? I'm not sure about the best way to get around the bracket. Photos would be great if you have them.

    I don’t have pics but they just tie wrap to the power cable from the foot peddle down the shaft . Leave a loop where the two shafts come together.

    Thanks, I'm still unsure of how best to get around the bracket above where the two shafts come together though. Do I just run the wire so that it's loose over the bracket and up to the head? If I secure to the bracket, I won't be able to adjust the motor height. Just hoping there might be a cleaner way.

    Just make sure you leave enough wire in your loop where the two shafts come together. It will pop the cable if too short. I left about 6 inches in the loop. Test it manually before going to the water.

    Yes leave it lose at the top so you can adjust for depth .
