Transducer Mounting Help
I need some help with the location to mount my transducer so the motor will not interfere with the side imaging. I attached a couple of photos and was hoping some one could advice before I drill.

I was afraid of that but i do not really have a better option unlees I move it more to the outside edge of the boat and the installation instructions say put it as close to center as possible.

Yes that looks like a best mounting option you have ... Is that a lowrance 3 d transducer

Well today I was going to drill and mount transducer in location shown in picture but noticed the bunk is right below the location and will hit the transducer when loading. I guess my only option now is to move the transducer more to the outside edge of the boat but then the transducer will be aproximately 20 inches off center of the boat. My question is what adverse effect will this have on my readings?

I think the original location would be best ..I would jack the boat up on the trailer and just cut a few inches off the bunk board ... where there is no danger of the transducer hitting it when loading the boat

I just installled the same transducer on my Lowe stinger tin boat. I did get interference from my motor even with the mother trimmed up. So now im trying to reposition mine to get better image.
