That's the epoxy resin HB uses to encompass the piezoes inside the xducer housing ... Not a good thing to be leaking out ...
Call HB ... 1-800-633-1468

I have had two HB Sonar transducers that were mounted on the Trolling motor .. with the motor stowed the Transducer is on the side ... There is a Black Tar like substance that slowly creeps out over time and drips on the Base mounting.. this substance is something else --- it locked the release lock so I could not get the Motor up to put the Boat on the Trailer -- I had to take the motor off and lay it in the Boat.. The stickey Goo had to be scraped off with a knife... Paint thinner has no effect on this stuff. You can not clean this stuff off to seal where the wire enters with Silicone ---- this is the third transducer that have all leaked the third transducer was on the Back of the Boat

I called the Number -- Rep said no Body has this problem and had no answer of what can be used to Remove this Stuff that has leaked into the Lock on the TM base. I told her there has to be Something because where the Transducers are made it Gets on their Equipment --- her first statement was contact the Boat Manuf. or TM Manuf to see what to use. I said they dont use the Epoxy so there would not be an answer there.. After about 10 minutes she would have someone else call me from where they are Made. I got to get this Gunk out of the TM lock ...
Well three days and have not had a return call from Humminbird ... I know they are in Business of selling sonar and Equipment --- When I get my New Helix I will seal where the wire enters with Epoxy before The Transducer is put on the Transom
