Question HDI Transducer Mount

Ok fellows any info out there on alternative transducer mounting for HDI ?

My cheap plastic Lowrance trolling motor mount broke Friday night on a stump and now I need a replacement and was wondering if anyone has
a better option than the cheap thinner than credit card mount.

Please and Thank you

I know Johnny Ray makes a metal side mount bracket. they are pretty universal in regards to the different transducers so ya might look into one of those. Bass Pro sells em for about $20.

Check out Transducer Shield and Saver. They may have a good option. I've got a shield and mount bracket on my TM and works great.

Thanks fellows.

I have a side mount just like you show but the HDi is bulky and the other
one is perfect but they want 80 bucks .

I may just strap a regular transom mount and see how that works.

So I just added a regular trans mount and can add a guard later.

Looks like you're good to go. I was going to suggest one they sell at BassPro as well.
I saw the pic of your boat in your Photobucket and that looks like a nice older boat. Your fiberglass looks great. I like the light setup you have on the bow as well. I have a 1983 ProCraft and I appreciate seeing older boats out on the water. I'll be stopping to chat if I see you out on the lake sometime.

Old hickory lake and you shall find me.

The nav lights cost like $12.00 bucks I even bought a second set and put a green in frt livewell and red in back with matching color switches on console. Whole boat is led except dash bulbs and I can convert that later
even the crappie lights are led.

Cheers , Ken
