Thanks Ken. I'll have the finder on by next week or maybe later this week. It shouldn't take to long to do my 3/4 acre pond should it? Do I need to purchase anything else?

I purchased a vinyl transducer mounting block for the transom. It made installation easier and in the future if I ever swap out transducers I wouldn't be re drilling through the boat

Good idea but I think I'll just mount it on a board and c-clamp it to the transom.

that's right your main use for the transducer will be on the tube. that would make a great temporary mount

I'd say it will take you less than an hour to do your pond.
