INSTALLATION

MOUNTING OPTIONS

The transducer can be mounted on the transom, jackplate, or step.

Use the following table to determine which mounting option is best suited to your boat/installation preferences.

➔ Note: Before drilling any holes, ensure that holes are drilled in a safe position. Ensure you do not drill into tanks, reservoirs, hoses, or cables, etc. and that the holes will not weaken the structure in any way.

➔ Note: When mounting the transducer, make sure there is nothing around the mounting location that could interfere with its sonar beams.

➔ Note: If mounting where the transducer comes out of the water, for example when the boat is on plane, the sonar will not work while the transducer is out of the water.

1. Jackplate mount (Transom bracket) Requires separately sold Skimmer Transom mount kit (part no. 000-12603-001)
2. Direct Step mount (Flush bracket). Requires separately sold Skimmer Flush mount kit (part no. 000-12602-001)
3. Step mount (Transom bracket)

TOTAL SCAN TRANSDUCER MOUNTING OPTIONS

Transom mount (Transom bracket) Refer to “Transom and step mount (Transom bracket)”

• Keeps transducer in the water when the boat is on plane, allowing you to track bottom at high speeds
• Transducer angle can be adjusted so it is parallel with the water
• Transducer more likely to collide with obstructions in the water and adds drag to the boat

Step mount (Transom bracket) Refer to “Transom and step mount (Transom bracket)”

• The transducer is not in the water when the boat is on a plane; protects transducer and prevents drag from the transducer
• The transducer angle can be adjusted so it is parallel with the water
• Sonar does not track bottom when transducer comes out of the water

Frequently Asked Questions

• What is the purpose of a transom bracket?
  It is situated well ahead of the transom on some boats. Such designs may not allow the motor to be raised up to get the prop out of the water when sailing, but they do conceal and protect the motor. The attachment of a bracket on the transom is possibly more typical.

• What happened to the transom bracket?
  In simple terms, a transom mount trolling motor is one that attaches to the boat’s transom. These engines propel the boat forward from the back. A bow mount, on the other hand, drags the boat through the water.

• What is a transom plate, and what does it do?
  Our transom plates are designed to absorb stress and distribute it uniformly throughout the transom, protecting the exterior from scratches and dents while also providing protection for the structural components of your transom.

• How does the transom saver function?
  The weight of the outboard is distributed on the trailer using a transom saver. The boat and trailer must be in sync in order for the weight distribution to be even; otherwise, the transom will continue to feel the strain.

• What is the proper height for an outboard motor to be mounted?
  The transom height for short shaft engines should be 15 inches, according to industry norms. A transom height of 20′′ is required for a long shaft engine, while a transom height of 25′′ is required for extra-long shaft engines. While this is a fact, there are certain saltwater motors that are 30 inches long.
