    Where To Install Humminbird Mega Transducer Placement 2017 Z20

    I use Lowrance but the side scan transducer look very much like the H-bird you are using, and the mounting bracket is almost identical (I checked out the install pdf for the H-bird a minute ago to make sure I wasn't talking crap lol). I researched mounting locations and tips heavily before I...

    700lx Hull Clearance....

    Do you mean directly in front of the middle storage box? There is a metal drain plate in between driver and passenger seat on the deck (I have a 2001 700LX so going off of where mine is located, basically if someone was sitting in between the seats, their feet would be right on top of the drain...

    Ez Troll Tray Install 2001 700lx

    The logo is definitely begging for attention lol. And the 5200 on all the screws stands out a bit as well. Only have gotten to run the boat once after my install, it truly makes a difference on back and leg cramps/fatigue. Got back home and was under the trailer doing a visual (trolled onto a...

    First Time Boat Owner

    Bought a second hand Nitro from a good friend. He didn't keep anything that came with it at purchase, not even the Merc info. Everything I have learned has been from trolling fishing and boat forums, manufacturers website, etc. Spend some time digging through forum threads and archives. Hands on...

    Ez Troll Tray Install 2001 700lx

    Finished up last night. Drilled a 1/2 hole in leading wall of middle storage and ran drain tube through there and secured it so that the end of the hose is permanently fixed next to manufacturers drain hole for the storage box. Ran the hose along the sidewall under the carpet of the storage box...

    Ez Troll Tray Install 2001 700lx

    Posted this on my post in "introduce yourself" and figured that was the wrong spot for this info so moving it to the hopefully proper forum page. Yesterday bit the bullet, cut a big ol' hole in my deck for an EZ Troll tray...nerve racking as heck, most of the time was second, third, and fourth...
