Default B60 install today

Well, went Ok I guess.

Wound up mounting (in one of the only accesible areas) about 6" from transom and maybe 3-4" starboard of centerline (Sea Boss/sea pro 210CC hull, single outboard). The tranducer is easily a 18-24" from the prop itself.

The only thing that makes me a wee bit nervous is my raw water intake which is about 8-12" forward and about 4-6" to the Port of centerline.

Hoping that does not cause water flow problem.

Guess I will know in 2 weeks or so.

I could not go any further forward from transom because of boat layout and could really not go more off center line because of the way the boat is blocked (and would be stored over winter).

Thoughts?
Should I be ok with the raw water intake since it is on the port side?
HUll has 17 dgree deadrise at transom.

I suspect you will be just fine. Just make certain you have it oriented the correct way (I think it is arrow pointing toward keel but verify this)

No problem there.

Arrow is dead on center line (spent a good amount of time and effort making sure of that).
