Ebb,

Great ideas...I am not sure I would want the transducer rattling around in a bag of water, but it sounds as though it works. I also would want the transducer to be replaceable so I would not glue the transducer down. Other than that, anything holding the transducer close to perpendicular to the bottom does the job.

Here on THE RIGHT COAST (heh) Valhalla is warmly wrapped in the finest (well maybe not finest) canvas. We had a storm blow through here so the cover blew off and I now have snow inside and out. How lucky can a guy get. Also I am going to have to find some patch material this next spring and get my needle, pliers and thread out to keep the cover going.

Spring is coming!
