    Congrats KC. Where did you get it? Thanks. Ice Did not know that. I'll have to ask. I know it's an HD unit but never considered that it wouldn't have an HD ducer.

    Your going to love it. I mounted mine high for my style of fishing which is rugged. I bass fish so I bulldoze, bang, scrape scratch and drag thru a lot of stuff. My 999's transducer is mounted high for protection but at high seed it will cut out because of turbulence. This is the price I pay to protect it. There are many tutorials online explaining mounting position's and their pros and cons.

    If you don't want to go poking a bunch of new holes in your boat you can mount a thick plastic cutting board cut down to size one time and then you can just mount your transducer to that. That way, if you decide you want to move it around, you won't be poking more holes in the boat.

    That's the plan. Sounds like they can be finicky. Cabelas has them for 20 bucks I think. It's never good when cabelas is 5 minutes away. Thanks will

    Stump jumper is a great way to protect the ss transducer. Used them on Truman lake on lowrance and hummingbird. Works great for those underwater trees

    i mounted the plastic mounting board to my boat with apoxy only. Never screwed/bolted it on. Has lasted 3 years so far. Highly recommend the plastic them as things change no more holes in boat.

    Looking at at units remember cost of transducer. I need a new lowrance structures an transducer (mine has failed I think). New ones cost 300.

    Biggest best unit you can almost afford is my advise also. Not any cheaper to upgrade later.
