Hi: I need to install a Northstar T/H Depth Ducer 600W Nylon 50/200KHZ Low Profile [AA002107R] in my H-37 Cutter I already have the Navman Trackfish 6600 working but need this sensor to use the sonar function. The ducer's housing is a 2-1/4" diameter and my question is: LOCATION ? I will lift the boat this weekend to replace the speed/temp ducer, I got a new one from Navman to replace the sensor only but I found the housing inside diameter is a little bigger so I need to replace the old housing and install the new one... So two reasons to lift the boat I have now. My concern is where to do the hole for the sonar's ducer. Any help will be appreciated!! Gabriel

Gabe, I have same boat

and my ducers, speed and depth are just forward of the shower sump. Lift the floorboard outside of the head door and mount it portside of center, just aft of the vee berth floor ledge under the sole and it will be just forward of the keel. The two ducers are about 3-4 inches apart. Or maybe you already know this and are trying to figure out how to get a 3rd ducer in there, if so I don't have an opinion.

ok, I will take a look tomorrow

Thas a good location, the only thing is that the sensor has to be almost 90 degrees with the water surface in a good vertical position, remember its a sonar. I'll take a look on sunday and post what I find. Thank you Gabriel
