what transducer did you get with it?? I got the Airmar tilt thur hull $221 , I could not use the transom ducer as my trim tabs are in the way.

I have not installed yet cause I am so busy at works, school and I am moving!!

Thanks!

MJ, I have the P-66 which is the transom mount. YOu should have the B-60-12, or the B-60-20, they are the thru-hull tilted element ducer's and are said to be incredible. I will have one one of these days. GarageNC has that in his V. the 12 or 20 are different models to compensate for deadrise, so I hope you got the right one.

12 for 12* deadrise and 20 for 20* deadrise??

If you have the tilted element ducer, yes, the last two numbers were for the dearise. Basically, one for mod v boats and one for deep v, it doesn't have to be perfect to work.

I have the 12, but they did not even offer the 20 on there site??

I guess I will have to call them! But I have no time for nothing right now :'(

All three of those would be good choice, and all are quality products. Why aren't you going back with a Garmin? Garmin products are pretty bullet proof. After a Garmin, I would probably go with the Furuno though.

BC I have never bought a top of the line FF before. I loved the little Garmin I had, but with a bigger boat I will be going deeper for Cod soon and wanted something more powerful.

I have bought and have here the Furuno 620 But have no time to install at this time as I am moving. :'(

But the question here now is weather or not I have the right transducer? I have ther Airmar tilted thur hull.

But it is the 12, and Air says they also have a 20, But there was no option for a 20 when I bought mine so I got the 12 not knowing.

My 1984 23 Sea Ox W/around has a 20* deadrise so looks like I might have gotten the wrong one??

Do you have any insite on this??

Thanks!

If you have 20* deadrise, you'll want the other 'ducer. Whereever you got it should make good for you.
