Lowrance Ready system detail

[Kingo]

I thought I'd put up some photos detailing the Lowrance Ready system for those of you who are interested in it.

This is the scupper that the transducer bolts into


Scupper cover plate removed with downscan transducer bolted in


This is the wiring scupper above the transducer


The scupper comes out under the middle of the seat ( it's under the strap on the crossbar)


Here is the finished product with wiring going into the hull through the supplied wire caps


After this you simply bring the wires through the hull and do the same with the wire cap on whichever side of the yak you want you sounder on and jobs done

That certainly makes the job much easier. Hobie should make all their yaks with that system, particularly the fishing orientated ones. It's very neat and I like the way the transducer is completely protected and out of the way.

man, I hope they bring this into the smaller yaks as well...

Thanks for the post Kingo great to see some detail, been curious about since first hearing about it, looks like a very good system

I'd say not, I get gps speed

It is a fairly large hole under there so a wheel transducer may fit.

It wouldn't work because water only enters from the rear
