[Rhodes22-list] Boat Equipment

[Caesar Paul]

Hi Dana,
 
Is your new transducer at the front of your keel a thru-hull type?  For whatever it is worth, I like the location for a transducer, and am planning to do and in-hull installation.

I have an unused (plugged) thru-hull just starboard of the drain tube in the
lazarrete.  I asked the previous owner about it, and he said that the transducer
had been located there, but it was problematic since that spot was not reliably
submerged when sailing.  He relocated the transducer to near the front of the
keel.  It works well in its current location.
