[Rhodes22-list] Electronics Advice

[Bob Weber]

Dave, I put that bulkhead mounted richie in a wash board and slide it in 
where the door goes.  Easy to see but accuracy suffers from the switch panel 
being 2 inches below.  Don't need accuracy just use it for racing.  My 
transducer is in the laz shooting thru the hull, no problems yet but again 
it is not an instrument I need to rely on very much - It is a fishfinder 
which I do use.
