    Question Mounting 3-in-1

    Bothers, need knowledge. Should I remove HDI skimmer (003-21727-00) and mount 3-in-1 (003-27928-02) in it’s place? Hooking to Live 12 @ console. Move HDI right and mount 3-in-1 to the left of it so as to have both (pros/cons)? 2023 RT188P. Thoughts on getting reading while on plane? Thanks for everyone’s input.

    Get rid of the HDI. It does nothing for you if you have a 3in1

    �� 10-4, Any chance I’ll be able to mount the HDI on the troller? 3-in-1 read on plane? Thanks.

    HDI works great mounted up front. Lowrance makes an inexpensive trolling motor mount for it. AI 3in1 CAN read on plane but it all depends on the install. It is not easy to optimize it for all speeds.

    Don’t you just love spending time setting up your transducer instead of fishing from your new boat��? Thanks, will check out the Lowrance mount. Appreciate your input.

    I have heard that being able to read the 3 in 1 on plane is difficult. I use my through hull puck to read when I am running, and my 3 in 1 while idling/graphing. My 3 in 1 is mounted on my jackplate. I also have a 3 in 1 mounted on the ULTREX.
