Default Transducer

What is best to re-use a in hull transducer, of unknown years or convert to a transom mount new transducer for Scepter 23 '76?

A shoot thru or thru hull will hold depth. Transom mounted are more problematic. Most are just not mounted low enough, at the proper angle, or by turbulence. Still learning.

Call the mfg.

Cheers,

At this point not sure which FF to install. Recommended to get a Raymarine C80 combo FF, CP, GPS. My budget is max installed cost $ 2500.
