Default The Yak is Rigged up

Ok, so I went ahead and gooped up the transducer mount with tons of silicone and actually screwed the transducer into the kayak. I think I spent less than $20 on everything here. Luckily I had that old fishfinder laying around...that really helped out alot in the cost dept. Now if I can get another good hand held GPS I'll be set.

I have a Magellen Meridian Color with cables and mount I will let 'cha have for $180 (was $500 new). The mount should bolt right on to the yak.
The GPS is waterproof and floats!
