Ed ,, My fish finder was professionally installed and the transducer is inside glued to the bottom of the yak .. water temp might be a couple of degrees off, but I've asked others water temp and it's right there ,, with in a degree. Works great when it's working .. On top but below the rail is a ram mount ... and the wire pokes thru to connect ..

I have the 798 also and I mounted my transducer to the bottom of the rudder. First I templated the top of the transducer and then cut the rudder to that profile. I then drilled and mounted the transducer to the rudder.
I have used this for 2 years and a year befor this with a 797. I flip the rudder up to launch and land so the transducer is protected.
Attached are pictures of the 797 transducer on a Trident 13 rudder.

I have the Gold card for my GPS and the extra detail in good. I would like to get the Fish-n-chip next as it has even greater detail(maybe too much)
