I'm in Florida and that mount would get torn up first time out. Glad you launch from a ramp only thing I can thnk of us usiing an over the side removable mount for the trans ducer. Thanks for the great vids.
any kayak can capsize if misused. Hard to recommend without knowing the kinds of waterways and fishing you'll do. But I think the 120 is a good middle of the road one to go with.
I have to agree about the "no bs",...so many YT'ers are filling their vids with some much bs fluff,....that I find myself just fast forwarding through the vid. I'm not giving them 24 minutes of time for 20 minutes of BS,...for 4 minutes of info,...that is, if they even get to it before I 'jet' to the next vid.
Sir, with regards to the USB port mounting, what size drill did you use to cut that hole? I bought a Nocqua USB port and it seems to measure just a bit more than 1” on n diameter. Did you use silicone to help add a bit more robust seal? Thank you!
Yes old Town through hull ports SUCK! I basically modded mine and waterproofed it myself but should've gone the route you did. Same deal with the transducer. My giant Lowrance StructureScan transducer was sitting too low and the flipping it over hack worked. One thing though, with some of the Lowrance transducers, when you flip it over there's two areas that stuck down and grab on structure. I had to rock myself loose from a log because the metal part of the bracket dug in and refused to let go lol.
@@ChiCityYaker I thought of that but I did something similar on a plastic tote and the metal heating up from the grinding melted the plastic. And I think one of the bolts on the "universal Transducer mount" (which I had to drill because the holes didn't line up lol) is cross threaded so I don't really want to take it off and risk it being able to get it back into the brass insert. I know, I'm a mess 🤣🤣
Awesome video. Just curious what made you go with the aluminum tracks vs adding plastic ones like the front and the back? Also how would you rate the yak attack rod holders vs scotty?
went with aluminum one's because they don't need backing plates. Be design it just has a a bunch of self-tapping screws. Otherwise with plastic one's I'd need access to back side and that can't happen. Also, love the Yakattack rod holders. I think they're much more functional.
