I have a nice outcast pontoon boat, and am looking for tips on the best way to outfit my boat with an electric trolling motor and a $200 (ball park) sonar. I was planning on a trojan or other similar good quality 12v power source. Recomendations on a good sonar unit and motor would be appreciated.

[black][size 3]Just remember DEEP CYCLE on the battery, and a Minn Kota 30 should be plenty.[/size][/black]
[black][size 3]I recommend turning the head of the motor 180 degrees (so it is facing the same direction as the prop) and mount it behind you, using your flippers to steer.[/size][/black]
[black][size 3]I would also think about a small rechargeable battery for your sonar for the waters that do not allow motors.[/size][/black]
