Figure 1-24 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 per-
formance because the effects of air bubbles are minimal. Install
the transducer 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
thoroughly with a detergent liquid soap. This will lessen the time
necessary 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.
