Hi El Toro

Thank you for your enquiry,

Given the boat is trailered, any though hull transducer needs to be carefully sited to both ensure smooth waterflow over the face of the transducer at the appropriate speeds and that the transducer face will not be damaged by the process of launching/ recovery or when trailering.

Having noted this, the through hull transducers generally give better performance because water flow over them is usually more stable and have less air inclusions.

The RV transducers are good down to 300ft and so for deeper performance a secondary transducer can be fitted to the PRO RVX, something like the E66077, 600W low profile good down to circa 1200ft. Or use the 1kw A102137 transducer good down to circa 5000ft.

regards

Derek
