Hey all,
so I got my first boat back in may this year, Tracker 1542, I've got a few projects lined up for it, currently working on a bow mount for my MK 55# transom TM, but onto the main topic, I picked up a Lowrance mark5x DSI fish finder today at my local dicks sporting goods for 1/2 the price for black friday/weekend sale, I was wondering on what's the best way to wire it up, what size in line fuse I should use, if it's worth getting the trolling motor mount for the transducer since my TM will be on the bow of my boat, or if I should just mount it to the transom of my boat?
I also plan on getting an aerator for the live well and a bilge pump eventually, should I look into getting a switch panel for everything?
if anyone has any pictures of how to do this I'd appreciate it as I currently have no idea what I'm doing.
