Overview

The Raymarine A80557 is a trolling motor mount for the HV-100 HyperVision transducer. It adapts the HV-100 to most trolling motors and includes the hardware needed for that installation, while the transducer itself is sold separately.

This mount makes sense when the sonar transducer needs to work from the bow instead of staying on the transom. On fishing boats that spend time following structure, holding on spots, or working shorelines with the trolling motor, it lets the HV-100 move with the motor as the boat is steered and repositioned.

Key features

• Built specifically for the Raymarine HV-100 HyperVision transducer
• Adapts the HV-100 to most trolling motors
• Includes the hardware needed for the trolling motor installation
• Mount-only accessory, with the HV-100 transducer sold separately
• Places the transducer on the trolling motor for bow-focused fishing setups where the motor is doing the steering work

Installation and fit

Before installation, check clearance through the trolling motor's full steering range and make sure the transducer cable has enough slack for deploy and stow movement. Clean cable routing matters on this kind of setup because it helps avoid pinch points and keeps the transducer sitting where it should as the motor turns.

This is a strong match for boaters who already have an HV-100 and want a trolling motor installation using a mount made for that transducer. Because it is specific to the HV-100, it should be treated as a dedicated accessory for that model rather than a universal mount for unrelated sonar transducers.
