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!

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?

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

How do I find Scap?

He is the owner of the Transducer Shield and Saver company.

Thanks!

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!

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.

Solution?

Dunno if you'll get an answer - last post before yours was 10 years ago.
