Hi all

has anyone any experience / recommendations / warnings / views using a
fishfinder from an inflatable.


I don't understand what your question is.

there is no reason that they shouldn't work like on any other boat, but I
wouldn't recommend a thru-hull fitting!

One issue that you might have is power. Most small inflatable don't have
any sort of electrical system, so unless yours has one then any equipment
that you use on it will have to be either powered from internal batteries or
you will have to add some sort of battery and electrical system.

There is a fishfinder that is specifically made for this type of thing.
Brand name is "Bottom Line", model "Fishin Buddy 1200". It has a clamp for
fastening to the transom and is powered by C batteries.
