Kayak Thru Hull Transducer - Kayak Fishing Adventures on Big Water’s Edge

I was aware that epoxy and a real shoot thru hull transducer would work. But considering that Lowrance has a disclaimer that shooting thru the hull would weaken the FF signal and degrade arches, I opted to go whole hog.

Also, if I used a real polyethylene epoxy like poly-welder

there is no removing the transducer. EVER

My cuda 250 wont read deeper than 350-400ft or so.I have my Trans. sitting in water inside a little open bottom cup siliconed inside the hull.I know I am not dealing with bubbles.I still like the idea of being outside the hull.
