hello guys, I was given a "bare bones" Scotty 1105 older (10 years) duel belt model electric downrigger with red brake handle,lighter socket plug and no rod holder. It is missing the mount,rod holder,and brackets.
Would it be worth spending the extra $$$ money to make it work and mount on my boat ie;female plug,downrigger ball,tilt bracket,12" bench riser base pedestal,30 amp fuse,new wireline,line releases,etc. $150.00+ later...
I was also thinking of just bagging it and just buying the Scotty 1050 or 1080 strongarm and gunnel bracket and just call it a day.
need help guys deciding again if its worth spending the extra $$$ to make the electric work, or spend somewhat less and get the 1050 and bracket?
Again I have a 2005 Lund WC14 with split rear bench and 15hp 2005 yamaha with no altenator. Have heavy duty marine battery.
Thank you!
