    Dual Graph Bow Setups

    Those of you with 2 graphs (10"+); how are you mounting them related to your trolling motor? Currently am on the fence between ordering a Lund 1775 Renegade and Lowe 178 Stinger, both with exceptional bow width, but from the photos I see, everything looks pretty crammed at the front. That said, I'm planning to run my HB 360 and Livescope to dual 10" or dual 12" monitors alongside the Minn Kota Ultrex.

    My OCD would prefer a riser plate above the recessed trolling pedal tray and centered graphs, but naturally I'm concerned I may not have the clearance for the graphs. If it's potentially as simple as just downgrading to 10" graphs, then that's no problem at all.

    I’ve been thinking this through for my boat as I add a second bow graph this year.

    I don’t have a good answer for you; you may need to offset the forward graph to avoid the trolling motor. I agree that both centered would look better; but I’ve looked at a lot of pictures of offset mounts and they really don’t look bad. I’ve been looking hard at Str8 Up Mounts. They make an offset mount and they seem to be the most economical mounts out there while still being super solid.

    Yes I think I'll need to stick with a 12 and 10 and have them offset versus having 2 12s. Even then it may be pushing it. Boatlogix has an offset mount that should potentially work.

    Go to the bottom of thread. St8up Mount 5 inch riser with dual OFFSET plate. I drilled new homes in the top plate to move it over another inch for better clearance.

    Thanks for the setup pics. I went ahead and ordered the boatlogix offset mount simply for adustability. A bit pricey, but I'll get some photos up once everything is finalized.

    Mine are stacked on a mount that I made using Ram components, my photos are too large to load here. I have a new mount from Cornfield Fishing, but haven’t mounted it yet.

    They have several designs.
