Furuno Ls4100 manual 525-5PWD, Installing the transom mount transducer on a deep-V hull

Note: If necessary, to improve water flow and minimize air bubbles staying on the transducer face, incline the transducer about 5° at the rear. This may require a certain amount of experimentation for fine tuning at high cruising speeds.

4.Fill the gap between the wedge front of the transducer and transom with epoxy material to eliminate any air spaces.

Installing the transom mount transducer on a deep-V hull

This method is employed on deep-V hulls and provides good performance 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.
