Note 1:
Do not mount the sensor in an area
of turbulence or bubbles: near water intake
or discharge openings; behind strakes,
struts, fittings, or hull irregularities; behind
eroding paint (an indication of turbulence).
Note 2:
Avoid mounting the sensor where
the boat may be supported during trailering,
launching, hauling, and storage.
Note 3: For single drive boat,
mount on
the starboard side at least 75 mm
(3”) beyond the swing radius of the
propeller.

Installation of bracket
1. Cut out the installation template shown
on the left.
2. At the selected location, position the
template, so the arrow at the bottom is
aligned with the bottom edge of the
transom. Being sure the template is
parallel to the waterline, tape it in place.

Warning: Always wear safety goggles
and a dust mask.
3. Using a 4 mm, #23, or 9/64” bit, drill
three holes 22 mm (7/8”) deep
at the locations indicated. To prevent
drilling too deeply, wrap masking tape
around the bit 22 mm (7/8”) from the
point.
Fiberglass hull:
Minimize surface
cracking by chamfering the gelcoat. If a
chamfer bit or countersink bit is not
available, start drilling with a 6mm or
1/4” bit to a depth of 1 mm (1/16”).
4. If you know your transom angle, the
bracket is designed for a standard 13°
transom angle.
11°-18° angle: No shim is required. Skip
to step 3 in “Adjusting”.
Other angles: The shim is required. Skip
to step 2 of “Adjusting”.
