Determine the Transducer Mounting Location
Decide where to install the transducer on the inside of the hull. Consider the
following to find the best location:
• Observe the outside of the boat hull to
find the areas that are mostly free from
turbulent water. Avoid ribs, strakes and
other protrusions, as these create
turbulence (Figure 28).
• As a general rule, the faster the boat
can travel, the further aft and closer to
the centerline of the hull the transducer
has to be located in order to remain in
contact with the water at high speeds
(Figure 29).
