    For those that have a transducer stick::::will the trolling motor clamp on the LVS32 work with a 1 1/2' shaft...I think it is designed for a 1" shaft,

    Thanks

    I found that 1 3/8" OD is absolute max. I used 18 gauge galvanized top rail.

    I'm sure that we can modify your transducer stick if we need to. I believe I used a 1-1/2" diameter pole.

    The mount screws measure 1-3/4" center to center.

    Post a pic of your design and I am sure someone can come up with an idea to solve the diameter problem.

    I used a 1" od. stainless tube and slid a piece of clear plastic hose over it to make it 1 1/4 "

    Can you drop the pole a little lower for the stow position or would that catch water when running?

    This is my running position..I lower it when scanning..I only stow it 1 time & that is when I am through fishing..It is stowed inside boat..

    My trolling motor is the same way with my trolling motor lift..

    The Bass boys think I am videoing their spots..

    Got it.

    or

    Where do intend to mount the LVS32 transducer with the current mount and position in the picture?

    Above or below the mount in the run position?
