glass hulls are the only ones that i've heard are able to mount the
xduser an inside bubble. for a source of xdusers, try airmar. most of the brands get theirs from airmar, http://www.airmar.com/ steve scheiding Lisa Collins wrote: If you have any kind of metal hull, a shoot through the hull type of transducer will not work. You would have to go with either a transom mount transducer or a in hull transducer. Most of the 192 kHZ transducers we stock utilize a 20 degree cone. We have a few 192kHZ tranducers that utilize the smaller 8 degree cone. Also if you use a through hull transducer and your boat is capable of high speed i.e. planing type of hull or you have more than 10 degrees of dead rise you typically need a fairing block. For hulls made of steel or aluminum the safest bet is a plastic transducer. This solution avoids the typical electrolysis problems.

My boat is ferro and I seem to remember reading somewhere that these don't work on ferro. Or am I wrong? Thanks for the reply, Steve Vaughan Henderson wrote: Hi Steve, Can't help you with a through-hull transducer but do have a few new 192kHz ones intended for installation inside the hull.
