Hey everyone....got a dumb question....I installed a transducer on my new GPS Fishfinder the other day and I started thinking about it after the fact....Will the screws that are holding the transducer and cable attached to the boat take on small amounts of water? I put a marine grade caulking in the pre-drilled holes and then put the screws in and these are also short screws that only go in about an inch but I know that it is far enough to go past the gell coat and into the foam of the boat (It is a fiberglass boat). They are not far enough in to penetrate the inside of the boat though. Will this take on small amounts of water that might saturate the foam in some way causing damage over time?
Thanks in advance!
