Hi all, I'm new here. I just picked up a 1999 18' Dauntless in really nice shape. We're looking to install a trolling motor up front on the bow with their battery in the console. The boat has a rail on it. Has anyone had a similar experience doing this? If so how did you get the wire there, how did you mount the T.M.? Also what brands? The boat has a Garmin Echomap 9" does it make sense to keep with a Garmin T.M.?

Thanks, Court
