So far so great. Install was simple. It fit on a Minn Kota Ulterra mount which was replaced by this. It's very quiet, seems get powerful. Running it on a 24' Bay boat. I have it integrated with my MFD and love being about to use it to control the Recon from the helm.

Fast shipping!

I was a little skeptical being this is a new sight but got my trolling motor and I'm super happy with it. 10 stars for BLD Marine!

Quality experience from start to finish!

It was an absolute pleasure to work with BLD marine. From amazing prices to stellar communication regarding shipping and transit, and the item arriving in perfect condition, I will happily be using them again in the future.

The Lowrance Elite FS 9 is a phenomenal unit, and it has been working superbly on the kayak it was installed on. It helped assess the habitat to find fish on the first use!

I highly recommend both the fish finder and BLD Marine. The bar is high when it comes to BLD Marine. Happy boating and tight lines!

Eagle Live

Honestly for the price, you can’t beat it. Plus getting it from BLD, exceptional service. If you are in need of some FFS on a budget, get this product. I have never had an issue while bass fishing.

For what MK is charging for this bracket the holes should at least match the Jackplate but they dont. Dissappointing

Scotty 1.5" ball mount

Super pleased and impressed withe this ball mount, especially at a much lower cost than other leading brands. It is rock solid and holds my bow-mounted 9" Lowrance Eagle Eye perfectly. I would think you'd need a larger model for larger graphs.

So far so good

I haven't used it out on the water yet. But, I have played with it in simulator mode. It seems to be very advanced for a beginner fishfinder. I can't wait to see it in action on the lake.

Great experience

Called to talk with the bender. Quick pick up and very informative . Took time to explain their co etc. all went perfect.
