Transducer choices for aluminum hulls (i.e.,Pacific)
In a perfect world I would like to install a 1kw transducer on my new 26' Pacific. It seems that I may be limited to transom mounted transducers which are typically mid-performance 600w units. Has anyone had experience with Airmar's 1kw transom mount or has anyone mounted a through-hull unit in an aluminum hull similar to the Pacific?
Thanks,
Mark

Thanks for teh responses, Redemperor,I'm looking forward to heairn about your sea trial. I wasn't sure if the through hull ducer would work for hulls thicker than 0.15 inches - this would be great news. Cooper - I'm forwarding your pictures on to the Pacific factory in Washington to see what they think. Jim at BOE had suggested something similar.
