Transom Transducer Installation

Locating the Transducer Mounting Position

Turbulence: You must first determine the best location on the transom to

install the transducer. It is very important to locate the transducer in an area

that is relatively free of turbulent water. Consider the following to find the best

location with the least amount of turbulence:

• As the boat moves through the water,

turbulence is generated by the weight of

the boat and the thrust of the propeller(s)

- either clockwise or counter-clockwise. This

turbulent water is normally confined to

areas immediately aft of ribs, strakes or

rows of rivets on the bottom of the

boat, and in the immediate area of the

propeller(s). Clockwise propellers create

more turbulence on the port side. On

outboard or inboard/outboard boats, it is

best to locate the transducer at least 15" to

the side of the propeller(s) (Figure 11).

•

The best way to locate turbulence-free

water is to view the transom while the boat

is moving. This method is recommended if

maximum high-speed operation is a high

priority. If this is not possible, select a

location on the transom where the hull

forward of this location is smooth, flat and

free of protrusions or ribs (Figure 9).

• On boats with stepped hulls, it may be

possible to mount the transducer on the

step. Do not mount the transducer on the

transom behind a step to avoid popping the

transducer out of the water at higher

speeds; the transducer must remain in the

water for the control head to maintain the

sonar signal (Figure 10).
