[QUOTE="Scott1298, post: 307853, member: 8416"] I'm anxious to get this thing seaworthy, but I'm affraid to permanently mount my transducer, because it's well... permanent. I'm still thinking about painting the outside of the boat and I don't want to glue/screw a transducer mount before paint, and I have no idea where the best place to mount it even is yet. So... magnets like the FFM guys but cheaper. I'm sure they'll rust all to hell, but by then I should know what I'm doing with the rest of it. I just cut off most of the handle of a 150 lb rated magnet, and put in a couple screws to mount the transducer in a 100lb magnet. I won't be able to set any speed records with this setup, but it should work trolling. [/QUOTE]
