65. ransducer Mounting General Considerations The transducer is mounted on the hull below the water line or as a rigid structure attached to the hull normally using a permanent sea chest The transducer must be mounted so that it is aligned with the fore aft axis of the vessel It must also be mounted so that the flat underside of the transducer is as close to horizontal as possible If the vessel has a keel the transducer can be mounted somewhere along the length of it If it is mounted on the hull it should be far enough away from the keel so that the keel will not be detected within the 120 beam angle Figure 4 Through Hull Transducer Mounting on page 11 shows a sea chest type through hull mounting designed specifically for a fast moving alloy hull boat The performance of the system is directly related to the mounting location of the transducer especially for high speed cruising The installation should be planned in advance keeping in mind the fixed cable length of 10 meters and the following factors Air bubbles and turbulence caused by movement of the vessel seriously degrade the sounding capability of the transducer The transducer should be located in a position with the most smooth water flow The transducer should not be mounted close to propellers because noise from propellers can adversely affect the performance of the transducer Mountthe transducer inboard of lifting strakes as these create acoustic noise h
