Hey guys my wife got me a really awesome Christmas present this year! I got a Lowrance HDS 10 GEN2 with structure scan. I was wondering if anybody had any good suggestions on mounting the structure scan transducer on the boat. Thanks J.C.

Tell me about it Dave!! I didn't know if I should kill her for spending that much or just hugg her because I would have never gotten that one. So.....I just hugged her! LOL . I think I will love it , I just want to make sure I got everything installed right. I figured that there would be some one on here that has experience with these. Cause looks like I got alot to learn with this baby!!!
You need to post this on the fishing electronics forum here. Just go out to the main forums and you will see it. Lots of tech savy folks there too.CF

Genec, ill have to take a pic tomorrow but its a Carolina Skiff DLV ELITE SERIES. Doesnt really step up. I saw a video on you tube that you shouldnt put it on the left side of the boat motor.Does it matter if its on the left or right of the boat motor?
THE 2D CAN SHOOT THRU HULL OF FIBERGLASS,DO YOU HAVE JACK PLATE? IF NOT I WOULD GET A TRANSDUCER MOUNTING PLATE THAT IS WIDE ENOUGH SO THAT I COULD MOVE DUCER A FEW TIMES AND NOT PUT EXTRA HOLES IN BOAT.I PERFER RIGHT SIDE BUT LEFT IS OK IF YOU STAY AWAY FROM MOTOR FOR AS PROP TURNS IT LIFT UP CAVITATION A LITTLE AS PROP TURN CICULAR. IF IN DOUBT MOUNT ON BOARD AND CLAMP TO BOAT AND MOVE AROUND TO GET BEST SPOT

Genec here is a couple of pics of the back of my boat. What do you think? the existing transducer is 19 inches from the center of my boat or motor.
I have the HDS 8 and love it. I have a bass tracker so the hull is totally different than yours.
Check this thread for some screenshots and some setting suggestions.
