im looking to mount my Garmin striker plus and need ideas of how to run the wires to the transponder.
 
I have my transducer mounted on my ride plate on the starboard side, thru the rear drain...

How did you get to the rear drain? Did you guild it through the engine bay?

Do tell. New AR195 and have a Simrad Go7 I’d like to do a “non-invasive” install. I’m leaning towards iPad with Navionics+ but sonar would be nice.
 
Thanks for all the help. Install was a breeze. Just fit my arm down the hole in the rear compartment next to the propeller clean out and was able to fish all me wires through, well, that’s after I unscrewed the 90 degree bend plastic piece and cut it in half, then siliconed it back up. Now trying to find a remote power lead for my amp to hook up to. Seems like my radio (MA200) only have the 8 speaker wires and power and ground coming out of the back of it.
 
How long has that transducer been installed? How many hours?
If you are referring to my transducer it has been on for a year now with over 75 hrs on her. One drawback to an IPad would be the glare and ability to see in bright sunshine.
 
So I just mounted my lowrance today. It was super easy once I finally grew a pair to drill a hole in my boat. That part took me about 2 hours. Don't know what that GPS wire was coming off the dash cluster, but it worked great for a power supply.

What channel do you usually use, 1200?

VFR... Transponder... nobody?
