    I'd check transducer mounting. If it works while sitting still and quits when you start moving it's getting air bubbles across it.

    Do you have the unit set on bottom lock ? Or do you have it set to read 18' of wter? Check your settings under advanced and or sonar.

    Ted,

    If you will send me a picture of the transom of your boat I will take a look at it and see what I can come up with. My email address is [email protected] .
