What I have: 19' Lowe deep V aluminum 115 cable steer with 8hp kicker, older electric bow mount, 24V.
Looking to get some help on what direction to go. I'm leaning to the bow mount setup. I would believe you lock the 8hp to go straight then use the bow to steer. I'm not sure if you need the main motor to help as a rudder, assuming it would be locked straight with the bow pulling it along.
I also like to Garmin TR-1 gold but I do believe a pulling to steer system would be better than a pushing system.
So asking for advice on this topic, and if I do go bow mount I would like a unit that I can interface with graph, will be upgrading the graph as well. Looking to stay in the 24V system as this is what I have now and 3 batteries are plenty on 19'
thanks
Scott
