Have any of you used the Stern Mate product to mount your transducer to the transom? This attaches to the transom without drilling holes thru the transom. I am thinking about using this on an aluminum boat?

W/JIG, I just mounted my transducer with the stern mate! I'm love it.... well worth the money. Took me about two hours to mount it up! Mainly getting the surface clean and reading the instructions over three times just to make sure I was doing it right!
What is stern mate?? A pict or web address would sure be nice, Thanks..............
can you post up a pic or 2 of your mount. Have looked at those, but could not get any a real good info on 'em other than the web site.Quote:

Greg, i should of took a picture from directly behind. It is off to the right so it doesn't... I will take one from the back and post! As for the water intake
it is well below the Bigfooot!!
thanks, was wanting to see it on a tin boat, see several pics on the glass boats, still wanting to see the tin boats.
I used one for my HDS 8 . They make a DUO attachment that allows you to mount mutiple transdjucers on the same mount. I have my SI and Skimmer both mounted side by side. I have an aluminum boat and it mounted very well to my transom. Just follow the instructions. Very good quality mount with all the hardware included. Their web site has multiple pics on all kinds of boats.

I do not have a step. Went directly to the back of the transom. Lowe 165 fishing machine. check stern mate web site. They have a pic of various mounts
ok, thanks for the info. have a good one.
