    Replacement transducer

    Here is the reply from Airmar: "For Smartcraft product you will need to contact Mercury or a Mercury dealer as they would be able to assist you in finding a replacement if one exists. We do not have a reference of compatible parts for Mercury as they are an OEM."

    anyone use flexseal for carpet backing?

    Has anyone experienced any noxious fumes with any of these rubberized coatings? I'd hate to have it stink up my boat when it is all closed up.

    When I bought my boat 3 years ago, I used Tom VanDerMaas (313 910-9290) who is local to the area. I thought he did a nice job. There was a thread about this same subject last year you may want to check out: http://clubsearay.com/showthread.php/66163-Southeast-Michigan-Surveyor
