Overview

The Garmin 010-12784-00 is a trolling motor barrel mount kit for the Panoptix LiveScope LVS32 transducer, letting you secure the transducer to the barrel section of your trolling motor.

The molded-tooth adjustment indexes the mount to different barrel diameters, so it can be set up on a wide range of trolling motors, including many Minn Kota and MotorGuide models.

This is a mounting accessory only. It does not change your sonar electronics or wiring, it simply gives you a clean, repeatable way to position the LVS32 on the trolling motor assembly at the bow.

Key features

• Made for mounting a Panoptix LiveScope LVS32 (LVS32) transducer on a trolling motor barrel
• Molded-tooth adjustment helps match the mount to different barrel diameters
• Fits a wide range of trolling motor barrel sizes, including common Minn Kota and MotorGuide barrels
• Barrel-mount location keeps the transducer moving with trolling motor steering during real-time viewing
• Useful when you want the transducer on the barrel rather than on the shaft

Compatibility and fit

Use this mount with the Panoptix LiveScope LVS32 transducer. It is not a universal transducer bracket, so verify the transducer model before ordering.

The mount attaches to the barrel portion of a trolling motor. Confirm your motor has a suitable barrel section and that the transducer will clear the lower unit, prop, and skeg through the full steering range.

Installation and setup

Set the mount on the trolling motor barrel, adjust the molded teeth for a snug fit, and secure it so it cannot rotate under thrust or when the motor is stowed. Once the mount is fixed, attach the LVS32 in the correct orientation for your viewing mode.

Route the transducer cable so it cannot pinch when deploying or stowing the trolling motor. Leave a small service loop for steering movement, and secure the cable to avoid chafe from spray, vibration, or contact with the shaft and mount points.

Use on board

This mount is a good match for anglers running LiveScope from the bow who want the LVS32 to follow the trolling motor direction while casting, jigging, or tracking structure in shallow water.
