Re: my new ship humber destroyer
it wont do any harm leaving it .usually you lose the reading when the transducer comes out of the water or is in very disturbed water generally I usually would mount it as far up the right hand side of the v of the transom that I could while it still staying submerged the further you can get it away from the turbulence created by the prop / outboard leg and the boat hull going through the water the better . but a transom mounted transducer is always going to be a bit sketchy at speed and at some point you will go too fast for it to work at all .mine on the last rib worked up until about 22 knots then It lost the signal ill be happy if I can get that with this rib .through hull transducers work better at speed
