So I got the transducer and now I'm going to install it. Should I put it exactly where the other transducer is? What is the "pad" that is just aft of the existing ducer? Would that be a good place to mount the new one? How should I remove the old ducer? Aslo - I have a temp sensor pictured here: Do I still need the sensor after installing the B60? Thanks,

Better to be onshore wishing you were on the ocean thab Quoted changed for ocean: Better to be on shore wishing you were on the ocean than be on the ocean wishing you were on shore.

I am not an expert, but my last two boats had transom mounted transducers. IMO yours looks to be mounted too low.

I'd buy one long sleeve and one short sleeve in large.

'76 17'Whaler. Regret selling that boat.

opps, here it is.

Ordered, Thanks.

Might be checking AK off the list in December. How do you get the mat to show?

Hey Jim - I just went to your site to purchase the B60, I had no idea there were so many to chose from. Do you happen to know which one will work with my Lowrance 111C? I know I need to 20 deg. I see one from Lowrance, but it is 12 deg.

I have done the "loop"(starting on New River east to ICW South to DCC then West to New River) a bunch of times in my small boat, but it has been a few years since I've been back there. I think the OP it talking about the far west section that connects New River with the Cutoff Canal. I don't know for sure, but I'm pretty sure its plenty deep for boats in your size range. If coming from the Cutoff Canal north to New River you just need to be careful around the last bend. There are some homemade marker sticks that will keep you off the shallow rocks. Like I said it has been a while, but I remember the "sticks" being pretty easy to read. It's actually a pretty neat area that gets descent snook populations.

What do you think I should be getting as far as depth coverage with the current setup and how much should it improve with the B60? I just want to make sure my expectations are not out of wack. Also, on your B60 installation videos, what hull is that? Thank you Kilo - I will adjust those settings next time I get the chance to get out on the water.

Thanks Brian, I have set it to both auto and manual for the depth I was at. Neither worked. I have messed with the sensitivity settings to no avail, but I don't really know what I'm doing. I'm thinking you are right about the transducer. Are you sure the item in the picture is the transducer? I don't know what else it could be. Thanks Jim, Can you tell if that is indeed the transducer? Any idea what model it might be, just out of curiosity? Also I see you are recommending the B60, which I will likely take your advice(and get it from you), but is there a "shoot through" transducer that is worth installing. You know how some boaters get nervous with holes below the waterline.

Hello all - The display is an Lowrance lcx-111hd. It seems to read pretty well in shallow water of 40ft or less, but there is a lot of clutter at the top: As I get to deeper water I lose the bottom on the graph, but the digital data still reads a bottom, sorry this one is split screen: Passing through 200-250 ft. I loose all bottom info. This is a new boat to me. Is this the transducer?anyone know what kind? On my old(sold) boat I had an 12 yr old Garmin 178C and I could read bottom up to 700-800 feet without problem. I'm assuming my new setup should perform at least that well. Can anyone point me in the right direction to troubleshoot this problem? Thanks,

What size boat?

Thank you very much Jim.
