Don't Make My $200 Mistake Installing Transducer on Ultrex Trolling Motor - Ken Smith Fishing

A quick guide on mounting an external transducer on a Minn Kota Ultrex trolling motors, including how to run or route and secure the cable to keep it out of the pinch points so you don't make the same $200 mistake I did. Don'$200 mistake I made, big part is routing the cable up the Ultrex and then into the boat and unit. #kensmithfishing #Rayburnreport #Humminbird #Installingtrollingmotortransducer
