[Rhodes22-list] Transom mount transducers

[thescubatank at cox.net]

Both Boaters world and West Marine have a Depth sounder that the transducer is epoxied inside the hull.  The run appoximately $130.00.  This is my next purchase to replace my old depth sounder.  I plan on placing the transducer centerline towards the bow (aft of the V berth).
