First of all, at the risk of sounding like a 'do as I say don't do as I do' kind of guy. I'm just thinking, well, if this is one of those transducers that can actually show you the image of a ship on the bottom, it might lose some of that fine detail going through a fiberglass hull. Why don't you call the nice folks at airmar, and ask them if you might lose some of your detail going through solid fiberglass, even if it is a good solid section. If you get the right Tech, they're very accommodating.

Hello all,I bought a Garmin Echomap Plus 94SV and transducer that is on sale at West Marine. This comes with a good transducer that will map out the bottom, act as a fish finder, etc. On most boats, the transducer can be mounted in the bilge and will fire through the fiberglass sufficiently. We, however, have a cored hull.If worse comes to worst, we get depth data via the existing transducer, but I'd like the added functionality.Does anyone know if there is a spot around the keel where the hull is not cored and it might work?Does anyone have a drawing that shows where the hull is, and is not cored?Thanks!Bruce WhitmoreSent from Samsung tablet.
