    I just watched a Navico video that showed the installation of the Ducer. It comes with a bracket that will swing up if you bump something. Just don't overtighten the bolt holding it on and it should flip up if you hit anything.

    I just installed my transducers for the same unit, both units come with swing away brackets.

    Crappie Reaper, do you have a link to that video?
