[Rhodes22-list] Transom mount transducers

[William P. Barry, III]

We had a transom mount on our R22, starboard of the rudder to avoid the 
motor, but just port of the ladder so it wasn't in the way. Just try to be 
sure its as far down the transom as possible as not to come out of the water 
when the boat is in rougher seas. We never had any difficulty and it was 
fairly accurate. We used a Lowrance model and are now on our second when we 
changed boats. Highly reccomend them.
