transducer out of the water at higher speeds. The transducer must remain in the water for the control head to maintain the sonar signal (Figure 10).

If the transom is behind the propeller(s), it may be impossible to find an area clear from turbulence, and a different mounting technique or transducer type should be considered, such as an Inside the Hull Transducer.

If you plan to trailer your boat, do not mount the transducer too close to trailer bunks or rollers to avoid moving or damaging the transducer during loading and unloading of the boat.

If high speed operation is critical, you may want to consider using an In-Hull transducer instead of this Transom Mount transducer.

Level

15”

Deadrise Angle

Find a turbulence-free location at least 15” from the propeller(s)

and not in line with trailer bunks or rollers. (Figure 11).

NOTE: The hydrodynamic shape of your transducer allows it to point straight down without deadrise adjustment (Figure 12).

NOTE: If you cannot find a transom mount location that will work for your high-speed application, please visit the FAQ (Frequently Asked Questions) section of our Web site at humminbird.com or call our Customer Resource Center at 1-800-633-1468.

2. Prepare the Mounting Location

After determining the mounting location for the transducer, follow the steps below to position and mount the transducer bracket.
