Simrad Go7 installed with 12” Connext

[Agent Ezzard]

After looking around for Ram Mounts and other ideas to mount a Simrad Go7 on my 2018 242 E-series. This is the outcome.

Looks nice. Is it in the way of your trim tab control there?

 

[Agent Ezzard]

Not at all. Everything is easily within reach.

This is the exact setup I want for my 2019 242 Limited S plans to do this next spring. How hard was the Simrad install?

this looks pretty amazing

so - what did you do for the transducer - did you install another one - or did you tie into the OEM?

Thanks

Tim

Aloha @Agent Ezzard was looking at where guys have been running there transducer wire to there units. Can u please show or tell where u ran urs? I doing an install of the same GO7 and looking for ideas. Mahalo

I didn’t run the transducer yet. I was going to have a bracket made up to mount it to the grate. Someone on here did it and I’m going to use his as a guide.

Oh ok U mounting it to ur intake grate or the ride plate? I want to mount on the ride plate as I just got Lectrotab trimtabs and won’t have room to put anyplace else. On ur helm did u run the transducer wire to the GO7 yet? I’m trying to figure the part out too lol.

Something like this https://jetboaters.net/threads/totalscan-transducer-install-210-fsh.17372/

And no I haven’t run the cable yet because I wasn’t sure at the time how I was going to run it.

Yes I seen that install, here’s a pic of another option that I was thinking of too and no need for a custom mounting bracket.

I think I remember seeing that one also. Maybe I was wanting to use screws and thats why I leaned towards a bracket. I fould a local welder/fab guy who just did up a trailer ramp door for me. I'll run it by him and see what he says and report back in the coming days.

I'm all about showing love. I own a copy of Solidworks and I could model this if I had one fabbed up and send this model to whoever. jsut fruit for thought.
