    Transducer mounting - with a kicker on the starboard

    Well, sorry for the confusion and my reaction then... This bracket was in no way installed by the OEM. I got pretty sick of looking at it yesterday and grinded it off. There was about a 3/16" gap between the bracket and the surface it was welded to. That gap was full of sand, dirt and...

    Transducer mounting - with a kicker on the starboard

    I appreciate all of your input, and I did look at the manual for this unit, that said it still has the conflicting no-port advice, which spurred my question. However... The weld-shaming seemed a bit lame.. Kind of a **** thing to say. Perhaps keep that **** to yourself next time, ok? We...

    Transducer mounting - with a kicker on the starboard

    Also, no way that bracket was OEM. The welds look like bubble gum. The whole boat was a home build anyways (not by me). Good to hear your whaler works good. Is it sidescan as well?

    Transducer mounting - with a kicker on the starboard

    Sorry, this didn't look like a question. I read it as "it has a minimum distance from motor to transducer". Are you asking me to measure the distance?

    Transducer mounting - with a kicker on the starboard

    Stock location the boat came with... The proposed port-side location under the swim platform. Only one chine between it and the keel, but none upstream of it.

    Transducer mounting - with a kicker on the starboard

    I have a 19 foot "north river" style sled boat with a main 200hp yamaha and a 9.9 mercury kicker. The boat was made to have the kicker on the starboard side as there is a welded on swim deck on the port side. The boat also came with a transducer bracket welded to the starboard side between the...
