Surface preparation and location are the keys to having a good sonar

need to place the transducer near the center of the transom area of
the boat, which is often near the drain plug. You must attach the
transducer to a solid hull area, this means you cannot have a double

comes with a ScotchBright® pad to smooth any rough areas and to
help get you down to the base material for a secure install. Use the
pad to roughup the face of your transducer a little too. This will also
