Which will be more reliable, thru-hull or transom mount for a depth
sounder?

I have a choice for the 20 footer we just bought.

Which would you suggest?

I've never had a problem with my transom mount, unless I knocked it out of
alignment while washing the boat. But it's easily straightened out again.
If I
had to do it over, I'd go with the transom mount.

I am leaning towards the transom mount. The only thru-hull I had was on my
32 footer (depth sounder). All the others had transom mounts with no
problems.
