Stern mount transducer on a Revo?

[deltadelta]

I had an in hull transducer mount on my Outback but it was old and didn't work well. To fix it I got a suction cup mount and it works great. You just suction it on when you peddle out and take it off before you come back in.

Thanks octico, I've never heard of instamorph before, how did you melt it?

I use one of these on my outback.

I use a ram transducer arm. I was hesitant to go that route as there are a few downsides (risk of hang ups, drag, etc), but I haven't had issues with it yet. I lift it up out of the water when I'm in route to a fishing area then drop the transducer when I want to look around below the kayak. Ideally I'd prefer a molded in transducer pocket on the hull, but the ram mount is fairly practical.

I have a hummingbird fish finder and the suction cup mount is designed for that transducer, however I believe they sell universal ones that may work for your transducer.
The one I have is called:Humminbird 7400901 MHX XNPT Portable Mounting Hardware Kit

I also have a hummingbird suction cup mount but it won't work on my Malibu due to the texture of the hull. So I made a swing down arm to mount on the stern that will swing up out of the way if it hits anything. I'm going to try a scupper mount on my Garmin

That's really cool! What brand did you get?
