Chief 2 Posted January 23, 2014 Posted January 23, 2014 I'm getting ready to drop the bucks on a HB 998cHD SI that comes with the XHS-9-HDSI-180-T Transducer. I have a MK Edge trolling motor. I can't seem to find an answer to whether the transducer will mount to the trolling motor and if it will what bracket is being used. Put a call into Transducer Shied and Saver and can't seem to get a call back. Any info/advice will be appreciated. Pics would really be great. Thanks! Gary Quote

Chief 2 Posted January 23, 2014 Author Posted January 23, 2014 Thanks for that info. I was hoping to be able to put a Shield and Saver on it. Any idea if they will work with the larger transducer on the Edge trolling motor? Quote

Any idea if they will work with the larger transducer on the Edge trolling motor? YES you can, the regular stock TM-HDsi has to be modifed slightly to clear the prop. That is why you need to talk to Scap Quote

Chief 2 Posted January 23, 2014 Author Posted January 23, 2014 Spoke with the folks at Transducer Shield and Saver. It appears they add a small spacer block to the top of the transducer bracket that allows for sufficient room to keep from hitting the prop. Cost an additional 8.95. Got it all headed my way. Thanks for the help! Gary Quote
Chief 2 Posted January 27, 2014 Author Posted January 27, 2014 Got the Shied and Saver bracket, but no way it is going to work. It is to long and the angle of the tm skeg keeps me from being able to move it far enough forward to clear the prop. I will have to give them a call today and see what they advise. Quote
