[Rhodes22-list] In-hull transducer?

[jpd9668]

Bob,I installed a shelf in the laz that covers the transponder and makes a level platform for stuff including my "picnic" Anchor and rode. I used 2x4 lumber which I painted with old stock leftover Cuprinol wood preservative/repellant (banned in US). Don't have photos yet. Because of the slope of the hull, the forward piece is on edge with the perpendicular members laying flat. With more time, I would have cut those on  bevel to match. I've made another shelf that I hinged so it will be longer and still fit through hatch.Joe Dempsey SV RespiteDeltaville, VASent via the Samsung Galaxy S22 5G, an AT&T 5G smartphone
