I placed mine in the green circle as illustrated above. I seem to go thru plastic mounting hardware for the transducer 2-3 a season and I'm sick and tired of it. The force of the water seemed to do it this past weekend. (First time out)

I 5200'd some plastic/imitation wood found at Home Depot to the transom just in case I decided the transducer needed to move. Works well.

If only these plastic mounts would last! Humminbird supplied a rubber plug for the mount to prevent rooster tail. This may have cause the additional pressure to the mount but without it I have a 10' rooster. Any suggestions?
