If you didnt fill in that space yet between the transducer and bracket I guarantee that will fix your problem. 'your description is EXACTLY how mine was throwing a rooster tail until I filled that space in.

Thanks RWilson2526. That's what I'm going to try first before drilling more holes in my boat. I'm reaaallly hoping that it fixes the issue.

@ tsubaki - There could definitely be something to this fuel filter issue. The Quicksilver filter I took off was rated at 25 micron. The OMC filter is rated at 28 micron. The Racor I replaced it with is rated at 10 micron!! I never had it wide open prior to the replacement so I don't know if it was there before. For 8 bucks, I'm definitely starting there.

On a side note, I'm also going to silicone the opening in the transducer to see if that fixes the rooster tail.

Thanks for all the help and great idea guys!! I'll let you know how it turns out after this coming weekend.
