Ha
295 or 1150 is pretty much top of the pile for trailer boats.
Like any electrical system on a boat it all comes down to how it's setup

No Problems with Aluminium
I fitted a FCV-295 with dual SS264 thru hull transducers to my 7.5m ali boat. Works a treat...there are no problems. Had it out to 500metres.
