Transducer

My new high power transducer showed up fed ex today for the new boat.!
Holy cow this thing is big !
I think I can put a kicker motor on the high speed fairing and use it as a skiff !

The new boat isn't that fast.....................

I'm guessing for another FCV585? The 525T-BHD

New boat does 18-20 cruise, 25-26 max
Not exactly slow for a downeast
And yes FCV 585, but B260 1k

Bigbo and I just installed my transducer yesterday. It is a Furuno 620 with a Airamar B60 tilted ducer Thru Hull.
The job is all done, but I will never install one again! Looked like a 5200 pipe bomb went off when we were done! LOL Were covered.

It would have been nice if they gave the DYI guys a cheap stamped out wrench! Thats a big wrench! Also if the put some holes or slots on the out side so someone could hold it with a spanner wrench or something.My 23' only has a 8" inspection plate to work thru.
