Alright all you side imaging gurus, I need your help. Give me the scoop on installing this thing. I'm open for any suggestions on transducer placement, GPS antenna placement and just any general info. that might make this go smoothly.

(NEHHHHH Minner, beat ya to it so SHUDUP) Biggest concern you need to worry about it making sure the ducer will be level in the water. Make sure you have the boat on level ground and then use a hand level as you tighten the screws to make sure it's level. I have my GPS puck mounted on the back corner of my boat and it works great. So easy DonDon can do it

hate to say this out loud but DD is right. Biggest thing is making sure you ducer is level in the water not neccessarily level on the boat

Sure you had one when you typed that. LOL

He might never have known the DUCER was upside down if a OLD MAN hadnt told him.

**DonDon** · 02-24-2010, 01:44 PM

OLD MAN was right as usual

**TLow** · 02-24-2010, 02:16 PM

DD,did you put the GPS puck on the back corner to be near the ducer? I was thinking of putting it on the console. Would this cause problems?

**feelay** · 02-24-2010, 02:19 PM

If ya put the puck at the console, and your console is 8' from the ducer, your marks are going to be 8' off.

**DonDon** · 02-24-2010, 02:23 PM

where ever you put your puck is where your waypoints are located horizontally. I have mine almost right above my Ducer. I MAYYY be a couple feet off but not very far
