Our echo sounder, which is probably the age of the boat, stopped working when we laid up, our log stopped functioning a little while ago. As a result I'm going to replace both the sounder and the log. I am wondering, where is the best place on the boat to install the transducers? The previous sounder had an internal transducer, now I'm going for an external one. The paddle wheel for the log was just forward of the main bulkhead, i.e. in the bilge outside of the 'toilet.' I have looked at other Ballads and the transducers seem different on each boat. Does anyone have 'the ideal answer'?
