Topic: Install transducer for Depth Sounder
Time for a new depth sounder. The old Datamarine 1980 original is toast and Datamarine is kaput as well.
Bought a new one and installing the meter in the bulkhead is done. Now I have an IN HULL transducer I need to install next to the old one on the inside bottom next to the keel (Starboard side).
The old transducer is glued to the floor inside. Anybody done one of these?
I read warnings about placing the transducer signal being distorted by prop wash if mounted on the wrong side. Or by bubbles in the glue used to fasten it to the hull. Or by being glued in and not level.
Any advice would be appreciated.
