includes;
1 - Transducer
2 - Angle Brackets
4 - Bracket Screws
2 - Bracket Plates
4 - Nuts

When choosing an area to mount the transducer, keep in
mind that you need smooth water flow across the face of the
transducer to insure a good reading at all speeds. Try to stay
away from rivets, ribs, or strakes that would be just in front
of the transducer. They can disturb the water and scramble
the reading.
With the mounting bracket attached to the transducer,
hold it up to the boat where you are planning to mount it.
Mark the holes on the transom, or mounting plate, so the
bottom of the transducer is flush with the bottom of the boat
the holes are located at the bottom of the bracket slots. This
gives you room to "fine tune" the position of the transducer
and optimize your reading after you've put the boat in the
