I can either put the fishfinder at positions which I marked A or B.
I think B would be a perfect spot EXCEPT for the fact that, when it is
time to put the boat on the trailer and the end of the trailer is
underwater, there is a pretty good chance that eventually the
transducer would make contact with the (don't know what it is called)
"boat support beam" of the trailer (see how close it is). In theory,
this should not ocur if the boat follows the designated grooves created
by the side beams but ofen when it is still floating the back move side
to side until it eventually settles into the grooves.

So I am thinking A which is closer to the leg but I tried turning the
wheel all the way and the wires don't seem to touch the transducer
support bracket. Any obvious concern(s) with A that I might have
overlooked?

What do you people think? TIA ! Andre

Investigate shooting through the hull instead of mounting on the transom.
