Transducer Mount For Kayak

Featured Replies

  • Super User

Does anyone know of an effective way to mount a transducer to a canoe?  I have a small radisson canoe and was considering a permanent transducer to go with my fish finder.  It's made of marine aluminum and I would not want to drill a hole in it.

 

Below is a factory pic of my boat.

Any help would be appreciated.

 

Thanks

You could always go the duct seal route and make a semi permanent shoot through the hull mount. There are also transducer arms made by ram and there is also a mini-liberator arm that is kind of the same thing.

I think I still have mine that I don't use. If you pm me your address I'll send it to you. Rather have someone use it then it sitting in my shed.

There is only one transducer made that will give you accurate readings through aluminum hulls.

Do a web search for Alumaducer.

ou could save some money (sort of) and make your own transducer arm + mount. If you're handy with tools and such.

 

Buy some nylon cutting board (black if you can find it), a couple lengths of 1/2" square aluminum posts from HD or Lowes, some stainless nuts, washers bolts, etc.

But as flyfisher mentioned, there are pre-made xducer arms that may be easier all around.
