    fishfinder transducer issues

    the old lowrance x51 unreliable performance finally gave me the shits enough to go out a buy a new one (humminbird 141c) which i installed a few days ago. Got a chance to get out on the water and suss it out this morning and noticed when above 15-20knots the depths would vary quite a bit and irraticly (and before you say it, i know that the bottom where i was is flat), it also would vary 1-3m when drifting. Now, when i "carefully" removed the old one i didint take much notice to exactly how it was positioned, what sort of angle and position in relation to the bottom of the boat ( 4.6m quintrex escape), pamphlet is a bit vauge so thought someone might be able to help, the transducer is hanging roughly an inch below hull, pretty streamline, few photos cheers fellas,

    Could be a little low. Suggest you come up 10mm & see how it goes.
    ROLL TIDE, ROLL.................

    I'd have it so where I've drawn the line it would be level with the lowest part of the hull directly in front of the transducer
