Thanks, gents. I am just balking at the price of the Stern Saver on principle. Probably over thinking this. Limiting new holes in a 1993 hull makes sense to me, but I have yet to sink or wreck a boat by mounting a transducer in all these years..... If I do mount a plate, I will just use trim board, like Azek, as I do have plenty of that around the shop. Ease the edges with a round over bit. It will have black bottom paint and be below waterline anyway.....
