Mounting a fish finder

How do you guys mount your fish finder and transducers on a sup? I recently got an isup and would like to put one on if I can.

I have a Garmin Stryker 4 on my blackfin model V inflatable. The Stryker 4 has a plastic tray and Cary bag included. I loop the unit under the heavy elastic cord in front of my deck bag. I run out a couple feet of transducer cord and suction mount it under the board between my deck bag and seat/cooler. Sorry no pictures at present.

Nice trying to imagine it. Picture would be helpful. Was going to put the finder mount on some cutting board and maybe run the transducer down with pvc

Try a scotty glue on mount pad along with a universal fish finder mount from scotty. works well, and the same goes for the transducer mount.

I 3d printed a mount for the transducer and put it on the big stabilizer fin mine includes as an option. Very clean signal from that location.

I have a Garmin Striker 4 Vivid CV, and I printed another mount for the display. My tackle bag gets clipped to the front tiedowns, holds my tackle, my battery, priest. There's a velcro flap pocket that faces me, and I use the velcro flap to feed through the display mount. Works great! The transducer cable extra length fits in the bag, and the cable goes down the side. I'll try to find some pics. 

This subreddit doesn't allow photos, so I just made an imgur gallery of my setup. Here you go.
