You should use a shoot-thru XP 9 20 2D transducer with your boat and the SI transducer can be above the hull bottom for idle speed scanning.

Skeeter bass boat transducer location. The new models should have the transducer at the bottom of the hull not on the transom. If you post a pick here I can help with where the best location would be. Once good depth readings at speed are found reduce the boat speed and check the location at slow speed again.

You are 6-10 from that. Dry out the bilge completely and clean the hull surface where the transducer will be mounted. While making a steep bank generally will.

Advanced design concepts and hundreds of hours of testing provide you the ultimate bass boat with lighter and stronger components and a whole new level of fishablilty. The 2012 TZX 190 does NOT have a jackplate. Do not mount the transducer in the path of the propeller on single-drive boats.

BUILD YOUR 2021 Skeeter FXR20 Bass Boat. Looks how you want. You could also epoxy a mount board to the transom and attach the transom mount bracket to that with screws.

I know that the bilge area is the best place for it. You can always just screw the included transom mount to your transom in the proper location and not spend any extra. Many transducers are mounted with a bracket on the transom a convenient location that requires no large holes in the bottom of the boat and eliminates interference with trailer bunks.

SKEETER WAS THE NAME ON THE FIRST. A properly installed transducer will work at the top speed your boat is capable of. Where the OTHER holes have been patched on the lower level would be a good location for some hulls but that transducer will not stay latched in the mount at the speeds your boat is capable of.
