Humminbird Thru-Hull Tansducer for non-Ocean Kayaks? - Kayak Fishing Adventures on Big Water’s Edge

Personally, I would not mount a transducer through the hull of my kayak, but thats my opinion.

2 reasons.

The picture I get with the transducer mounted inside the hull using slow cure epoxy is very good, better than my last application using marine goop.

The second is the possibility of a leak developing while I was offshore, or anywhere else for that matter. Your kayak will flex with use even in calmer waters.

I don't make holes below the waterline.

2 cents.
