I am working on an X Factor right now, plumb the front center hatch, fish finder on front edge of that hatch or on one of the side rails.

Ah cool. Yea fish finder wise im in debate over which model to go with. Heard someone talking about a raymarine unit? Seen so many different ones on kayaks but most seem to have a version of the elite 4.

Go with the side rails IMO. I hated having mine in the center on my old yak, it was right where I wanted to set gear down and I didn't like having to look down while paddling. I didn't want it in the way of getting bait on my xfactor so I went the side rail and it's working out very well.
