    Default Humminbird Rooster tail fix.....


    Finally got to check this "modification" out. It worked fine. It is made from a tupperware pint container (if I remember correctly). I will get a plate made of aluminum later ( when I get Paul or Jeff to fabricate one for me). I like this word fabricate.

    It is Humminbird's fault. They need to fix this mess up (I am being polite).

    I jsut put a Hummingbord on my boat and from eye-balling it I thought I had the ducer on right. It's about throwing water over the back of the boat. I gotta raise it a little but just in case that doesnt fix it how is that plastic attached. Maybe a picture from another angle?!?

    Cut out to fit from bottom and side of tupperware container. Unscrewed Xducer mount, marked plastic and drilled holes in plastic to align with existing mount holes, then lined up and bolted transducer back on, holding plastic in place.

    Easy fix.
