![Bassmaster Elite Series pro David Mullinsâ office is based out of a Phoenix 721, which is rigged out to ensure he can easily get to and from his fishing areas while capitalizing on every bite. Hereâs a look at his setup.](http://www.bassmaster.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/06/ac1_4489-david_mullins_boat_tour.jpg)
![Mullinsâ Phoenix is equipped with a Garmin Force trolling motor, one of the latest releases. The motor features a brushless motor, which has some distinct advantages. âThe brushless motor cuts down on interference (with his electronics),â Mullins said. âAnd itâs super quiet. I canât believe the power: Itâs running my boat over 4 mph on high speed, so itâs incredible power.](http://www.bassmaster.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/06/ac1_4491-david_mullins_boat_tour.jpg)
![The Garmin Force has integrated transducers and LiveScope that pair perfectly with his Garmin electronics. âWith it being a Garmin, I can now link my unit straight to my trolling motor,â Mullins said. âItâs an all-integrated system that works well together.â](http://www.bassmaster.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/06/ac1_4492-david_mullins_boat_tour.jpg)
![The trolling motor also features a wireless foot pedal so there are no cables to break. Mullins has the pedal recessed in his front deck to make it easier to stand all day while operating the motor.](http://www.bassmaster.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/06/ac1_4493-david_mullins_boat_tour.jpg)
![The Force trolling motor even has a notch on the mount to hold the pull cable to keep it from slapping around.](http://www.bassmaster.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/06/ac1_4493a-david_mullins_boat_tour.jpg)
![Mullins runs a pair of Garmin Echomap Ultras.](http://www.bassmaster.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/06/ac1_4494-david_mullins_boat_tour.jpg)
![All of his electronics â at the bow and on the console â are held securely by BoatLogix mounts. âThis is the dual mount upfront,â Mullins said. âYou can move it left, right, or back, up and down, so they are really adjustable more than other units. And they are rock solid.â](http://www.bassmaster.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/06/ac1_4495-david_mullins_boat_tour.jpg)
![Power-Pole foot controls are placed to the left of the trolling motor foot pedal so they are out of the way while remaining accessible.](http://www.bassmaster.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/06/ac1_4499-david_mullins_boat_tour.jpg)
![The front deck of the Phoenix 721 is spacious so thereâs ample room to work. It features two rod lockers and two storage compartments so all of Mullinsâ gear remains within reach.](http://www.bassmaster.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/06/ac1_4501-david_mullins_boat_tour.jpg)
![The front center compartment is used to keep his rain suit and an extra life jacket handy.](http://www.bassmaster.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/06/ac1_4505-david_mullins_boat_tour.jpg)
![The rear center compartment is for tackle he knows heâll need during his day on the water. He keeps tackled stored in boxes so he doesnât have to hunt and peck for what he needs.](http://www.bassmaster.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/06/ac1_4511-david_mullins_boat_tour.jpg)
![The compartment is spacious, with room for a number of boxes filled with any necessary tackle.](http://www.bassmaster.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/06/ac1_4512-david_mullins_boat_tour.jpg)
![The starboard rod locker is designated for an extra rain suit, extra plastics and a throw cushion.](http://www.bassmaster.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/06/ac1_4515-david_mullins_boat_tour.jpg)
![The port locker is filled with rods. The locker holds about 20 rods, so Mullins is never caught short. While he generally keeps the rods he expects to use on the deck during a competition day, he keeps extra rods stored in the locker.](http://www.bassmaster.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/06/ac1_4523-david_mullins_boat_tour.jpg)
![Two small compartments beneath the step for the front deck are used for storage of miscellaneous items he doesnât use all the time. For instance, the left box is where he keeps his trolling motor remote, extra pliers and other small tools. The right box holds his fizzing needles and hook file.](http://www.bassmaster.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/06/ac1_4528-david_mullins_boat_tour.jpg)
![Also at the back of the front deck is an ice chest where Mullins can keep drinks and his dayâs lunch cool.](http://www.bassmaster.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/06/ac1_4533-david_mullins_boat_tour.jpg)
![His console is flanked by two 12-inch Garmin Echomap Ultras. âI run one that is nothing but mapping, and I run one that is nothing but sonar,â Mullins explained.](http://www.bassmaster.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/06/ac1_4537-david_mullins_boat_tour.jpg)
![Another set of BoatLogix mounts holds Mullinsâ 12-inch Garmins securely in place on his console.](http://www.bassmaster.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/06/ac1_4538-david_mullins_boat_tour.jpg)
![A Pro-trim switch on the left side of the steering column operates Mullinsâ T-H Marine Atlas jack plate.](http://www.bassmaster.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/06/ac1_4539-david_mullins_boat_tour.jpg)
![Another Pro-trim switch on the right side of the stereo column works the outboard trim motor.](http://www.bassmaster.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/06/ac1_4540-david_mullins_boat_tour.jpg)
![A Mercury SmartCraft gauge is essential to Mullinsâ ability to keep up with all the operations of the outboard. âIt allows me to see digitally what Iâm running RPM-wise or what fuel economy Iâm getting,â he said. âEverything is digitally laid out, so I like that one box.â](http://www.bassmaster.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/06/ac1_4541-david_mullins_boat_tour.jpg)
![To the left of the SmartCraft gauge is an Atlas gauge that allows him to precisely set his jack plate. âThat helps me dial in if Iâm running shallow water, but it helps me dial in speed, too,â Mullins said. âIf you want to get the most out of your motor, as far as miles per hour, I can adjust that until itâs getting the most.â](http://www.bassmaster.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/06/ac1_4542-david_mullins_boat_tour.jpg)
![The rest of his switches are grouped to allow him to reach everything easily.](http://www.bassmaster.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/06/ac1_4543-david_mullins_boat_tour.jpg)
![He keeps a Power-Pole remote near the switch panel so itâs handy if he needs to pole down before leaving the console.](http://www.bassmaster.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/06/ac1_4544-david_mullins_boat_tour.jpg)
![A T-H Marine Hot Foot allows Mullins to control speed just like heâs driving a car. Also under the console is a fuse panel so he can easily and quickly diagnose and reset any tripped fuse.](http://www.bassmaster.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/06/ac1_4545-david_mullins_boat_tour.jpg)
![Comfortable seats make long runs more manageable, while also allowing for extra storage. The back deck also is spacious, concealing his livewells, extra storage compartments and his bilge area.](http://www.bassmaster.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/06/ac1_4548-david_mullins_boat_tour.jpg)
![Between the seats is a well-designed storage compartment in which Mullins puts his keys, cellphone and other miscellany. âItâs just a great box,â Mullins said. âMy other boat didnât have anything like that.â](http://www.bassmaster.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/06/ac1_4551-david_mullins_boat_tour.jpg)
![The starboard rear-deck storage holds his life jacket when heâs off the water.](http://www.bassmaster.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/06/ac1_4554-david_mullins_boat_tour.jpg)
![Mullins also stores his extra Sunline in the same box. âI keep one of each (line weight),â he explained.](http://www.bassmaster.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/06/ac1_4560-david_mullins_boat_tour.jpg)
![The port rear-deck compartment holds all of his plastics. âA lot of my heavier baits Iâll store back here to keep the boat from being heavy in the front,â Mullins explained. âSo things that weigh a lot go back here.â](http://www.bassmaster.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/06/ac1_4562-david_mullins_boat_tour.jpg)
![The box is large enough to carry tons of plastics organized in large plastic bags to make it easy to locate the lures he needs.](http://www.bassmaster.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/06/ac1_4564-david_mullins_boat_tour.jpg)
![The dual livewells hold 44 gallons of water, enough to keep even the heaviest bass lively.](http://www.bassmaster.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/06/ac1_4566-david_mullins_boat_tour.jpg)
![The livewells feature LED lights so Mullins can quickly grab bass even in low-light situations.](http://www.bassmaster.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/06/ac1_4568-david_mullins_boat_tour.jpg)
![The bilge compartment is accessible via a hatch on the rear deck, and Mullins has his cranking battery and his Power-Pole pumps mounted on the starboard side.](http://www.bassmaster.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/06/ac1_4574-david_mullins_boat_tour.jpg)
![Three Battle Born lithium ion batteries stored on the port side of the bilge power Mullinsâ trolling motor through long days of use while minimizing weight.](http://www.bassmaster.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/06/ac1_4575-david_mullins_boat_tour.jpg)
![Mullinsâ Mercury 250 OptiMax provides all the power needed to make long runs while conserving fuel.](http://www.bassmaster.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/06/ac1_4579-david_mullins_boat_tour.jpg)
![The outboard is flanked by a pair of Power-Poles that allow Mullins to hold his boat securely in place when sight fishing or really picking an area over.](http://www.bassmaster.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/06/ac1_4581-david_mullins_boat_tour.jpg)
![The T-H Marine Atlas jack plate controls the vertical position of the OptiMax to maximize speed and efficiency.](http://www.bassmaster.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/06/ac1_4584-david_mullins_boat_tour.jpg)
![Tucked beneath the jack plate is another Garmin transducer so he can see whatâs beneath him while running or idling.](http://www.bassmaster.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/06/ac1_4586-david_mullins_boat_tour.jpg)
