I might put in a plug for the fishmark series finders from eagle. I have a fishmark 320 that I bought for ice fishing 2 yrs. ago. This spring, I adapted it for use on my fat cat. It has performed superbly. For only a slight increase in cost over the "168", it has a lot more capability. The mounting was easy, thanks to suggestions from this board. By drilling a hole in the center of the mounting bracket, and mounting in the drink holder, the unit actually pivots, which is handy in changing light conditions. I have fished approx. 1 time per week with my tube this summer, and give the fishmark a big thumbs up as a tube finder. I am at work right now, and I don't have my set-up pics on this computer, but if you scroll back through, I did post pics here on how I mounted it this spring.

Where I live, the only place I have been able to find the 12 volt sla batteries has been my local sporting goods store.
