New Transducers

Well the new SS264 transducers are now installed. These ,as a pair, are the equivalent of the M260 but are through hull rather than shoot through the hull. Bloody big suckers.

Thanks to David of Bonzer Imports for a very competitive price from the US and super fast delivery of 6 days via USPS and Fedex. Also thanks to Shane and his team at Hayway Marine for a great install job at a good price. Now comes the job of learning how to get the best out of them. We tried them out yesterday and were able to mark fish (or what we think were fish) at 26kts in 42m - they certainly helped us out in getting our bag limit by providing much finer detail than a 600w transducer mount is capable of. A few more trips before we get ourselves sorted for 300-400m

As we progress I will post up some pics.

cheers

Good choice on the through hull. IMO is the better option.

i have the single through hull! just be sure you check the tightness of the transducer after a little while! mine came a little loose after a few months but has been good ever since
