Figure 1-17 Transom mount transducer, mounting flush with hull
Installing the transom mount transducer projecting from hull
(for deep-V hulls)
This method is employed on deep-V hulls and provides good perfor-
mance because the effects of air bubbles are minimal. Install the trans-
ducer parallel with water surface; not flush with hull. If the boat is
placed on a trailer care must be taken not to damage the transducer
when the boat is hauled out of the water and put on the trailer.

Transducer preparation
Before putting the boat in water, wipe the face of the transducer thor-
oughly with a detergent liquid soap. This will lessen the time neces-
sary for the transducer to have good contact with the water. Otherwise
the time required for complete "saturation" will be lengthened and
performance will be reduced.
Do not paint the transducer. Performance will be affected.
