ALTERNATE TRANSDUCERS AND MOUNTING METHODS
The 105SX comes with everything necessary for installation and operation
on most boats. However, there are several situations which may require a
different type of transducer. Inboard boats, wood or metal hulls, and sail
boats create unique transducer mounting needs. Alternate transducers
and mounting methods are detailed below.
Portable Mounting
The standard transducer can be adapted for portable installations using
part number
MHX-SPT. This accessory adapts your transducer to a suction cup mount
for temporary installation on the boat hull or other surface.
Trolling Motor Mounting
The standard transducer can also be adapted
to mount on most trolling motors using part
number AD-STM. This accessory includes a
bracket and hose clamp that allows
mounting the transducer to the body of
most trolling motors.
Thru-Hull Mounting
Thru-hull transducers install through a hole
drilled in the hull of the boat. Larger boats or
boats with inboard motors create turbulence
that make transom mounting ineffective. Also,
hulls that are very thick or are double layered,
or made from materials such as wood or
metal, (which do not conduct sonar signals)
make inside the hull mounting inadvisable.
Thru-hull mounting may require the use of a
fairing block to level the transducer with the
waterline. Also, since special tools and
knowledge may be required to perform this
type of installation it is best to refer to a
qualified marine technician.
