Example: Streamlined transducer on steel hull
A fairing (A), made by the shipyard, is placed between the transducer and the hull. It is
required in order to adapt for the deadrise angle of the hull, and it will also house a cable
service loop (B). The fairing can be made of wood or steel, and should have the same
outline dimensions as the transducer. Remember to create an air outlet (E) on the fairing,
and to fill the bolt holes with a filling compound to ensure a smooth transducer surface.
