[QUOTE="jethro, post: 458177, member: 12381"] Yeah, I thought that too, so I filled that entire area with hot glue. It's not that. I have a Humminbird transducer on my other boat, it works beautifully. I am actually probably going to change out to a Humminbird transducer so I can just use my Helix 5 because it seems to read very well at speed (unlike my Lowrance) and not throw water all over the place. It's a way worse problem than that, it's throwing GALLONS and GALLONS of water per minute over the motor. And even stranger, it works great when it's just on plane, which is about 22 mph on this boat. When I get over 30 it starts. At 45 mph it's throwing gallons onto the motor. [/QUOTE]
