Pilot holes must be drilled with a 4 mm (5\/32 in) bit to a depth of 19 mm (7\/10 in), and 20 mm screws with marine sealant are used to secure the mount.

Note that transducer performance is limited at speeds below 19 km\/h (12 mph), where bottom return and depth data may be reduced. At higher speeds, transducer drag can affect course-keeping, potentially reducing top speed or causing drift.
