Hola tengo un transducer 525T-BSD como puedo instalarlo en un bote inflable tipo sodiak. Lo que tengo que indicar es que la Kia del bote también es inflable.
What if i have like a full keel running down the center of my hull? Not as deep as on sailboats but still. Will it cause any turbulence with a regular mount on a starboard side?
It shouldn't cause turbulence if there is some distance between the transducer and the keel. Be mindful that if you have wide-beam transducer and a deep keep, there could be side-lobe reflection from the keel. Consult with an installer that's dealt with such scenarios.
The reason you are losing bottom has more to do with air getting by the face of the transducer which disrupts the signal. If this constantly happens at about the same speed, its 100% bubbles. Lower the transducer a bit to get the face of the transducer into air-free water.
Hi, Cat hulls are tough and often the only solution is an In-hull model shooting through the fiberglass. It works well as long as the fiberglass in that location is solid (no air).
