Dual Transducer for Garmin Echo 550C
#5
I was looking at a dual system at one of the fishing shows a couple years back, they had a split screen to monitor both front and back at the same time, realy cool, expencive too.

mounting the transducer wasnt all that difficult, we ran two hose clamps around the motor base of the trolling motor one in front and one behind the motor stem.

Then we used high quality zip ties to tie the transducer to the hose clamps, We used hose clamps to tie the transducer cable to the motor stem, first applying a gennerous application of friction tap around the stem and cable before toughtening of the clamps. 3-4 clamps on the stem to make sure there is no wiggle of the transducer cable fluttering against the motor stem.

we opted to not use zip ties around motor stem because they would just slide up and down in use. In addition that in time would pinch the transducer cable.
