DFMott,

Q. I am not sure what you mean by "too much of it to be suspended beneath the hull" and what issue that creates.
A. The installation guide for the RV-100 identifies the transducer's height with respect to the bottom of the hull. Should the transducer be installed lower than specified with respect to the bottom of the hull, then it will be subjected to more drag force, may aerate sooner, and may be more exposed with regard to strikes from floating debris. Additionally, should the installation location not permit a transom mounted transducer to kick up should it strike debris, then the transducer may be damaged or its bracket torn from the hull as a result of striking debris. If seeking the best performance in conjunction with this hull, it would be recommended that the currently installed transducer be relocated to permit a thru-hull RV transducer pair to be installed.
