It really isn't a big deal to pull a transducer and replace it with a plug. I just pull the transducer until it's nearly out, have the plug in the other hand and make the swap fairly quickly. If you do it quickly, you'll get less than a pint of water in the boat. Probably done it hundreds of times.
Also, some transducer thru hull fittings have a flapper valve which closes and shuts off flow. If yours is one of those, you'll get very little water in the boat. The only downside I see is getting tiny salt water critters in the bilge where they might cause a smell. Easily resolved by flushing with dock water. Dennis C.
