Finally got to installing my Humminbird after a year of procrastination. Was wondering if there are any covers out there to protect it from sea spray, fish blood, birdshit etc. I've seen some nice ones but looks like they're only available on the other side of the pond.

Looking for something like this. Anyone know of a more local company who makes something similar?

Well I guess I'll be making one. Yesterday's conditions weren't to kind on my newest addition.

Anyone know what the clear cover is called or where to purchase? I'll probably be slicing up some old slickers for the rest of the materials.

In a pinch, try a baggie.

I use zip lock baggy and a small bungee cord. Works like a champ! When I done I throw it away.

It got a hole, and 9 months later...

Nvm

This dry bag was $9.99
I cut small slits for the cables and one for the ram ball mount. I'm sad to say the longest part was driving to wal mart...

The larger rings on the cables actually make a snug fit with the fabric when plugged in. Some science I think. Anyways..
