<< well, I borrowed a sounder and attached its transducer with simple marine
silicone, and it works great! I tested it against my transom-mount unit by
the same company (different model) and the readings were always within a few
percent of eachother. The deepest I got was 150 feet, but both units read
this just fine. >>
This is a tried and true method for installing transducers. The 'trick' to
it is to ensure that there are no voids or air bubbles in the RTV bond. The
question is, how are you going to remove a 'borrowed' transducer without
damaging it?
