Installation Instructions
10
Before attempting any installation on boats with otation material sandwiched
within the hull, consult the boat manufacturer. In a shoot-thru-hull installation the
transducer is epoxied to the inside of the boat hull.
The previous image shows a Skimmer transducer epoxied to a at, solid por-
tion of the boat hull near the transom. The circled image is a close-up view of
the transducer epoxied to the hull.
NOTE: While you can epoxy a Skimmer transducer to the
inside of a boat hull, we recommend using a Pod transduc-
er for this type of installation. Use care when mounting a
transducer inside a boat hull. Once epoxied into position,
the transducer can be very difcult to remove.
On vee hulls try to place the transducer
where the dead rise is 10° or less.
WARNING: Do not remove any material from the inner hull.
Careless grinding or cutting on the hull could damage the in-
tegrity of the hull. Contact the boat dealer or manufacturer to
conrm hull specications
