water. Ideally, the
transducer should be just
under the bottom of the
boat. However, you may
need to lower it 1/2” to
5/8”, depending on your
hull shape, to get a good
reading at top speed.
Drill out the holes and
tighten the bracket to the
hull securely. Be sure to
seal any holes drilled into
the transom with silicone
to prevent water from
leaking into the boat. Give
the rear of the transducer
a slight tilt downward so
that the back is about 1/8”
lower than the front.
Tighten the bracket screws and nuts securely. Run the trans-
ducer cord up to the unit. Before you plug the transducer
connector into the inline jack, it is recommended to spray
some lubricant or dab some common petroleum jelly inside.
This will help prevent long term corrosion.
