Position of transducer
Transom mount transducers are suit able for planing hulls less
than 26 ft (8 m) long, with outboard or stern-drive power. They
are unsuitable for boats with propellers forward of the transom,
prominent keels or displacement hulls.
Select a position for the transducer that will:
• Be away from the propellers or propeller wash and on the
downstroke side of the propeller/s (normally the starboard
side).
• Have a smooth, clear flow of water at all times, which
means that th e transducer should not be in line with
any hull projections, openings or planing strakes.
