Thanks gents-

I ran the boat today with the Garmin 188c transom mounted ducer in place and it sucked. I followed all of the directions to the T except I mounted it on the port side because that is where previous owner drilled hole in transom to pass transducer cable through. Garmin recommends starboard side because of the way prop spins.

Anyway, to make a long story short. I am going to remove Garmin transom ducer, and reinstall in bilge.

I did a few test spots today in bilge for Furuno 600 in-hull puck and it seemed to work pretty good. I wanted to re-read directions etc. before I mount it permanently.

I'll keep you posted.
