Fitting a transducer??

#1 Post by joey London. »

Hi all, can anyone help me in regards to fitting my fishfinder transducer without having to take my boat out of the water!! Also, where exactly does it go? There must be a way of clamping some form of bracket to the transom and using cable ties to connect the transducer to the bracket. Any advice would be welcomed. Thanks, Joe.
