Humminbird Problem

[Fishin is life]

Oh MAN.....that stinks.

One thing that I noticed is my 788 getting squiggly lines when I start my motor. These newer motors take a GIGANTIC amount of juice to start them, and I wonder if the voltage drop is enough to damage the units.

I've been shutting mine down before I crank up.........

I'm seriously thinking about putting a small 12v motorcycle battery under my console and using that to run BOTH of my finders. I get crazy amounts of noise still, and have never been able to eliminate it completely.

Later,

Have you tried turning your sonar off at the console while youre on the trolling motor and vice versa? That cleared up a ton of the static i was getting
