Alright guys/gals here is an update.
Traded in my mx1825 for a loaded up 2025 from SKB. Dean had setup the boat with a Cisco mount on the dash with a ram as well. I asked them to put a mount on the bow that matched the one back on the gunnall. My intent was to move the bow unit to the gunnal when pulling plugs and up front for casting and jiggin. My past boats always had a wheel controlled kicker. BOY WAS I MESSING UP WITH THAT SETUP!!!! This rocked fished like that today and it eliminated the fatigue you get with a wheel controlled kicker. I will post some pics later.
