Title: custom transducer mount for side image
Post by: gup72 on September 14, 2011, 08:03:43 PM
I designed this mount for the 998 side image transducer.  I have had the ears break off of 3 of them last year and they are too expensive to replace.  This mount allows for the mounting of a new transducer or a broken one.  If your ears have broken off you can take it to a machine shop and have them install a hole 1/2" below the old one in the ears.  This mount breaks away and then will reset easily with the push of a hand.  The mount protests the unit by making it break away if hit from either end and takes all the stress off the ears and disperses the load of a hit through the entire body instead of just the ears.  I am just seeing if there is interest in something like this, please let me know what you think!
