I doubt it will fit with the original transom mount brackets that come with it, but as shown in the photo above, a paper template can be created to fab a small piece of polypropylene cutting board. The piece could be used to connect the transducer to the kayak hopefully without having the transducer stick out of the protection of the transducer inset. One sure way to find out would be to have West Marine Price match the lowest price. If it does not fit, that will be an easier return than having to pay to mail it somewhere. If you fish frequently, the West Marine Warranty is well worth it IMHO.
Drilling new holes in the hull of the kayak does not sound like a good idea, and the transducer on an arm makes unnecessary drag. If it does not fit the transducer inset, I would consider mounting it inside so that it transmits through the hull. Good luck. |
Thank you for the detailed reply. I ordered the unit and I will check out how to modify it to work in the recess led area if possible. I will post an update.
