Default Re: Airmar In hull transducers - 600 Watts

Hooper,

OK, here's the deal.

I have three FF setups.

First, I have a Raymarine DS600X ff. It is connected to the thru hull transducer setup that the previous owner put in for an old raymarine mono 750L setup. I went with the DS600X because it was the best FF that could work with the current thru hull setup. I am quite happy with the DS600X.

Second, I bought a used Furuno 1850DF GPS NT. I have the GPS setup working, but not the FF. My plans are to drill a hole in my aluminum flotaiton bracket and install a Furuno 525 transom mount ducer.

Lastly, for the Garmin 178C I have bought the Airmar P79 in hull. I found a place about 2 feet behind the Seacock where I will try to install it. My only issue may be that it can be pretty wet down there. We will see.

Peter
