Permanent Wet Transducer Installation - Kayak Fishing Adventures on Big Water’s Edge

Anyone thought of trying these waterproof electrical boxes? Seem like a good way to go. Cut the bottom out and glue down like the pipe fitting. Screw down waterproof lid would make a good seal. My Lowrance transducer is pretty long and definitely wouldn't fit in any pipe smaller than 5". You can just chose the size you want that fits best with these.

When after two or three years it sprung a leak in the back where it was hard to get to, I decided to convert it to a putty mount. It works better than the wet well.

The piece of pool noodle and cover keep the transducer pressed into place.
