When mounted correctly, it should read up to 45mph, even on stepped models.

2005 42 Lightning

The OEM transducer for my Livorsi digital depth guage is under that step going down into the cabin... shooting through hull. It works awesome and gets a good reading at any speed... even in rough water. I'm sure Fountain took that into consideration and set up the hull carefully at that particular place.

I got a new GPS with sonar and would like to mount another transducer for that. Does anyone know if I can just epoxy it to the other side next to the Livorsi sender?

Thanks

Jnewton,
Please clarify, is the transducer before the step or after it ?

thanks,

Cool Re: where to put depth sender

Farther clarification...

Under the step that goes from the cockpit into the cabin.

Forward of the first step in the twin step hull.

Hope that clears things up.
