Anyone mounting a transducer inside a hull ie Airmair M260 1kw does not angle the transducer.. its installed as level as possible.

Thanks Gary, yeah you would be right there would be no advantage in any tilt forward which does make total sense, for sure I would have done it that way and thought no further of it had I tried it in mine already

cheers fnq
