Choosing the right mounting option depends on your trolling motor setup, available shaft space, and the type of sonar perspective you’re aiming for. 

• Barrel Mount is ideal for users with limited shaft space or those who want a fixed angle that’s easy to install and adjust. 
• Shaft Mount gives you a clean, compact profile and works well if you have ample shaft clearance. It allows for smooth transitions between sonar views.
• Panoramic Mount offers the most versatility. It includes an extension arm with a built-in 11.25 angle shift, letting you seamlessly switch between Forward, Down, and Perspective (panoramic) modes. It works best at around 3-15ft of water, it does not work well in deeper water.

Panoramic Mount (shaft + angled arm) is ideal for shallow water and straight-on viewing. Barrel and Shaft mounts offer traditional setups that are easy to align and install.
