Garmin fishfinder, rails and rod holders on Revo 11

Over last few weeks installed rails, fishfinder and rod holders on Revo 11:
Fishfinder: Garmin Striker 4DV, transducer installed inside (front) of kayak, using marine silicone.
Rails: 2 of Brocraft Aluminum Kayak Tracks (https://goo.gl/Nk9cyE)
Brocraft Kayak Track Rod holder Mount  (https://goo.gl/Q14zJB)
Scooty rod holders and RAM rail mount for fishfinder.

Originally planned to use two Scotty #438 Gear Head Track Adapters (https://goo.gl/LnVhdC), but after trying on the water realized that one on the left side will not work: in case of bigger fish drag thread will loosen up with rod rotation counterclockwise.
So I had to buy Brocraft Kayak Track Rod holder Mount (https://goo.gl/Q14zJB) and make a stiff rod holder connection on the left side of a kayak.

Thanks much for sharing your pics. It helps a lot to see how others have done things.

One question, if you don't mind.

Your transducer is "adhered" in place with the marine silicon? Is there silicon under the transducer or just around it? I see you have little "dams" glued in there as well. Do you need to put water in the "well" or does it work without water?

I guess that's a few questions

Looks to be completely filled with goop between the dams. I’m guessing the dams held the goop in place.

It's completely submerged in silicone. I did silicone dams first, waited 1 hour then filled with silicone and placed transducer, pressing it down, trying no to place any bubbles between. Was I little nervous about it and trapped top with masking tape. Once tranducer was placed, cleaned silicone, removed masking tape.
Looks like it works well. No dots on the screen, clearview shows stumps and underwater vegetation and follen trees.
Overall happy the way I did it.

When hanging my rod off the port side I use a rod holder on the starboard gunwale.  The rod crosses the yak and puts the left handed reel within easy reach.  The rod butt is over the water and it’s easier to adjust the rod angle without the butt getting bumped by my legs or feet.  And It takes less craning to see the rod tip when trolling.

on the water

Looks more like on the mirror! Nice ride man, nice ride!
