Installing The Garmin Striker Vivid 4cv On Scotty Mount Transducer Arm w/ Nocqua Pro
The Garmin Striker Vivid 4cv has finally been installed on my kayak! I attached it with the Scotty Mount Transducer Arm, and it's also powered by the Nocqua Pro Kit 10AH Battery.

Nicely done. It’s refreshing to watch someone work on something for the first time like many of the rest of us hope to be doing soon. Thanks for posting.

im new to kayak fishing and using electronics so I figured someone else was in the same boat lol
I really enjoyed your video and the instructions. I’m trying to install mine on an inflatable Kayak as soon as everything arrives. Thanks for the post
A Year later, still helping people out. Got mine set up now. Thanks!

Glad to be able help out! im coming back!
Helpful and great to see someone who, like me, isn't an electrician, figuring this out
This was exactly what I needed. Thanks for doing this fresh and working through the kinks. Great video.
Great Presentation!!! Just what this old man (78) needed to see before I buy the Scotty parts and how to install it all. Also I'll be using mine on a Scadden Predator X pro inflatable frameless boat instead of a hard kayak hull. Instead of a rail, I'll be gluing on a Scotty mounting patch. I'll be able to carry the boat for a mile into my off grid lakes.
Dang this really helped me out man, I appreciate it! Tight lines brotha!
Excellent video. This helped me a great deal since I have the exact setup and I just followed along with this video. Thanks!
Really nice video man. Great seeing content for folks who are beginners.

thank you! I figured we are all learning and should learn from one another!
Thanks for the video bro. Gonna be getting the same setup. Super clean
Very useful vid. Have the exact set up. Saved me bunch of time. Rubber washer tip was huge. TY
This is my exact setup right now. Same kayak model and color lol. This video helped a lot bro
Protip: Make sure the connections are good before you melt the shrink wrap.
Just got my Garmin and have the same transducer arm but wasn't sure how I wanted to connect the two. I thought about doing it the same way you did but wanted to see how someone else did it first. Thanks for the video. Made my life easier.
Nice! Very useful info. Good luck on the water!
Nice, i like the idea of the side arm since you dont have to drill any holes into the kayak, that's the main reason i havent installed one on mine. i also have a 106 pdl, i cant wait to see it on the the water to see your pros and cons.

That was my main concern I didnt want to put any hole In the yak. it works perfect! video coming soon on the water! its my first fish finder so I had to dial it in and learn somethings.
Interesting video can't wait to see you on the lake fishing
"I have no idea what I'm doin" Love it!
Super informative thanks man
preciate this ur the only vid or post I seen about mounting transducer and setting this all up out the box with the same Garmin as me, all the amazon reviews are just guys who cant use some imagination and scream its junk bc the loose fits and half couldn't figure out how to mount the transducer they all said hardware was missing or something idek but thanks bro
Dude this is literally going to be my exact setup..Just got the PDL 120 also. Cant believe I found this video. Amazing.

Hey new subscriber thanks for the video. I had already started installing mine before I watched your video but I got stumped when I went to put the transducer on the bottom of the Scotty mount. When I get home from work today I'll try it the way you did.
Thanks! I was having trouble mounting the Garmin bracket to the Transducer
Great video
Smart move with the washer
Love the video and your energy man! I laughed at the heat shrinking part cause I was thinking like “wait how does the heat shrink get on there?” lmao.

Great tutorial and setup, thanks Question what did you do with the two other wires that comes together with the Garmin, because it looks like you only use the red and black, did you cover than from water or what did you do. Thanks again

Hi Kali, what size screw and bolt did you use for the transducer mount to the Scotty Arm? I have the same setup and it didn't include the screw with the Garmin.
Thanks simple concise vid. Where do you sit the battery pack in the yak?

Thank you! Theres a small spot under the bar of the pedal drive and it sits in there PERFECT.
Just got the Nocqua battery as well with a Garmin Striker 5cv but for the life of me cant figure out what wires go to what for power. My battery has a 2 pin connector but all the cables on the fish finder are smaller 4 pin ?
How did it work in the water? Was bracket in the way at all?
What are you gonna do with the slide track that came with the mount kit? I need one
Awesome video. This has helped me out considerably, thanks a million. Just one question, after you connected the two wires from the battery to the depth finder, what did you have to do with the extra wires coming off of the cord that Garmin gave you?

That piece that you slid your transducer into, where did you get that?
What sized spacers did you end up using and how many did you need. I’m planning on using the same setup.
Did those size 8 screws and nuts come with the fish finder?
Where did you get the plate that mounts to the actual Scotty transducer arm, I can not find it anywhere!
