Jon boat trans
Got a fourteen ft all flat bottom Jon square nose and everything where should I mount the transducer for my hb 570 portable keep in mind I only bought the portable because it has it's own power source I have no intentions of it coming off this boat the screen Is mounted on the front seat under where my tm is mounted

If you fish underwater brush I would mount it on the TM.
-
The hull won't work?? Wouldn't that be the best place since the tm moves
-
A hull mount on the transom will work, but where do you fish from, the front or back? Is the TM a foot control on the front or hand steer on the transom? you'll probably want both the TM and FF close together in most cases but it depends on your method of fishing.
-
I fish from the front tm is on the front Is it not possible to mount on the hull up front because of the angle I'm a ff newbie sry
-
Mount it on the bottom of the trolling motor. They make kits for doing this and also there is a sticky at the top of this board to show you how to route the wiring. This is a very common solution and the movement of the TM will not affect the readings.

Sweet thx for all the help guys

mounting the xducer on the front to the hull would probably result in xducer damage when loading or unloading the boat from the trailer. Mount it to the TM, easy to do, just watch where you run the wire to avoid pinching it when deploying or stowing the TM, and leave enought slack so the wire will not get damaged while using the TM.
