[QUOTE="Popeye, post: 7250, member: 148"] Mine is mounted on the transom and because it it is forward of the prop I doubt it is cavitation from the prop itself, turbulance from the hull maybe. I think it is mounted exactly the way Lowrance says to do it so the centerline of the transducer is parallel too and level with the bottom of the hull. I can't be sure but I thought when I first got the boat that it read an accurate depth even at WOT. I also thought it got bumped up a notch and was reading behind me but I've played with it while trolling and have it set so it read straight down (shallowest reading while floating). I'm not reall sold on through the hull transducers for aluminum hulled boats. At least not with [b][i]ME[/i][/b] installing them. [/QUOTE]
