This is the 3rd set of electronic's I've put on this boat. It's a foam filled hull,so a truhull X-ducer was not in the mix. I installed another transom mount X-ducer.
After having 2 other X-ducer's installed on this boat, it was starting to look like it got hit with a shotgun.
Time to make an improvment.
I installed a piece of 3/4in Starboard. It's screwed on, but the hole's were drilled oversize and epoxy/cabisol was injected into the hole's and then redrilled for the Starboard mounting.
The screws and Starboard were beded in 4200 Fast.
I removed a Sitex Profish II map/plotter DGPS and a Sitex XJ-1 Loran
I now have a Garmin 498C and I added a mount for my backup Garmin 76Cx.
This cleaned the whole thing up much better and is not near as cluttered. I also don't have 2 antenna's that I have to fool with each time I put it in the garage and take it out again. They would hit the garage door if I didn't.
