Rob, Using thickend epoxy, I have twice glued (two different boats)tranducers designed to be mounted THROUGH the hull to the inside of the hull for a "shoot through" applicaton. They have each worked perfectly. I don't like below water level holes in my boat.
I tried the mineral oil method once and thought it had the potential to be too messy if the assymbly were to get knoched around. It did work and at least proved that the transducer would indeed shoot through the hull and, the chosen spot on the hull was acceptable. The latest project was on my C27 and I mounted it under the rearward area of the V berth just to the right of center. Works great. In each case, I removed the Through hull mounted tranducer, glassed up the hole, and using the same transducer, mounted it inside.
