As part of my Simrad NSS8 upgrade I added a Lowrance SonicHub to the system. The Simrad and Lowrance SonicHubs have the same capabilities and functionalities. I ran out of vertical mouting space so I had to add some on the forward bulkhead of my under helm space. Whaler did a nice job in providing a lot of vertical space designed specically for that purpose so all I had to do was add a 10" x 5" x 3/4" piece of King StarBoard to extend the existing mounting area.

The SonicHub is a small unit so it fit nicely in the corner.

I've got to harden all the wire runs.

Thanks for the many images of your nice installation. It is always interesting to peek under the hood of a boat's electronics.
