Waiting for some warm weather so I can mount them in the boat.

Purchased 2 new Humminbird finders. Helix 7 G2N and a Helix 12 G2N.  Waiting on a new trolling motor. I want the new Ultrex 80 24volt but can't see the money they want for it now.  Will keep checking on prices hopefully I can get one by spring. If anyone should happen to see any deals keep me in mind. Got my new trolling motor last week. Not all I need is warmer weather so I can get these things installed in the boat. Oh, and watching a lot of youtube to better familiarize myself with the 2 finders at least.

That is an interesting thought though Andy you launch your boat and it starts heading away from you it would kinda send chills down your spine.

And how long will it be before a phone app called "Mess with Minnkota" comes out? Kinda joking as I am sure they encode some ID in case multiple people are using them at the same ramp. In real life use, I am thinking I would already have the motor vertical and have spun the prop a few times before setting the boat free like that.

Yea Ken it's fishing electronics. I'm sure there are other electronics we will be learning and talking about as we go. Electronics encompasses a large variety of our most sophisticated equipment to help in our fishing pleasure and ease.

Hummingbird started the ball a rolling with there state of the art side finder and down imaging. Then Lawrence jumped in and made improvements now Garmin. All this competition can only make our electronics even better. Thank you for sharing Andy.
