You will need to figure some way to prop the transducer into position
while you make your test run. A brick or two might be sufficient to hold
it in place.

Shoot-thru-hull Installation
1. Make sure the area is clean, dry and free of oil or grease, then sand
both the inside surface of the hull and the face of the transducer with
100 grit sandpaper.
The sanded hull area should be about 1-1/2 times the diameter of the
transducer. The surface of the hull must be flat so the entire trans-
ducer face is in contact with the hull prior to bonding. After sanding,
clean the hull and transducer with rubbing alcohol to remove any
sanding debris.
