Furuno GP-7000F Height required at mounting location, Mounting location on single drive boat

Drill bit for:

Bracket holes: 4 mm, #23, or 9/64"

Fiberglass hull: chamfer bit (preferred), 6 mm, or 1/4"

Transom hole: 19 mm or 3/4" (optional)

Cable clamp holes: 3 mm or 1/8" Screwdrivers

Straight edge Marine sealant Pencil Zip-ties

Water-based antifouling paint (mandatory in salt water).

Mounting location

To ensure the best performance, the sensor must be submerged in aeration-free and turbulence- free water. Mount the sensor close to the centerline of the boat. On slower heavier displacement hulls, positioning it farther from the centerline is acceptable.

Allow adequate space above the bracket for it to release and rotate the sensor upward.

Height without speed sensor 191 mm (7-1/2")

Height required at mounting location

Note 1: Do not mount the sensor in an area of turbulence or bubbles: near water intake or dis- charge openings; behind strakes, struts, fittings, or hull irregularities; behind eroding paint (an in- dication of turbulence).

Note 2: Avoid mounting the sensor where the boat may be supported during trailering, launching, hauling, and storage.

Note 3: For single drive boat, mount on the starboard side at least 75 mm (3") beyond the swing radius of the propeller.
