The Wide Side transducer is available as a trolling motor mount, a transom mount, or a portable mount.

Wide Side can be connected directly to your Wide Vision unit in place of the dual beam transducer, or
used in conjunction with a transducer switch so both transducers can be connected to the Wide Vision.
See the section on "Installing the Wide Vision" for additional information.

Also, several kits are available that include a Wide Side transducer with a switch or an additional
mounting system. (See Section One, Available Accessories)
