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.
