I currently own a 2017 Cougar AE so the nose of our boats are very similar. For starters I would suggest watching the Ken Smith video about the Basscat Lynx. In both of the videos he is with Phil Allison who breaks down a bunch of information regarding his boat, as well as his previous boats. Phil ran a bunch of Pumas. His current boat has one bird on the front, with 360 on the ultrex. I do not know which mount he has it on I think it might be a balzout mount. You can get those either from parts or directly from balzout. I don’t run birds, I started with 2 lowrance hds 9s, gen 3, then switched everything out to garmins. I currently have a 9″& 10″ garmins on the nose, along with live scope and a 12 on the dash. All units are on bass boat technology mounts. Hopefully all this helps.
