How to: installing built in transducer on a minnkota Powerdrive trolling motor

So a little different video today folks! I bought a Minnkota Powerdrive 55lbs thrust trolling motor (2017-present). I know I have struggled as many Powerdrive folks have struggled in the fight to mount a transducer onto their trolleys. Well folks here’s the video for you. If your okay with 2D sonar your dreams have come true with this fairly easy and basically stock and proven setup! As always folks if you find this video to your liking, like and subscribe!
