A little update, as I was contemplating Simrad vs Garmin, I recalled that I had a new in box transducer that came with my last Lowrance. I didn't use it as I already had a transducer on the boat. The transducer is the TotalScan all in one transom mount model. It works with Lowrance and Simrad...

Yup, this is how I got screwed.

Chevy vs. Ford. Both offer great products, research online and maybe go to a shop that sells both and play with them.

I wish you were right, and I'll look again, but we did trace the transom transducer to the GSD 22..

Nope, just one transducer hooked to the GSD22 and it's the transom mount that is laying in the bilge..

Thank you very much for the detailed info, I will dive into this, digest it, and I'm sure I will be back with more questions.

Yeah that is something I will be doing, right now I'm just trying to find out the best way to get one graph and transducer on the boat. Then as money allows I will add the other components that I want.

That is an option, just not sure I like the idea of a transom mount on this boat.

I could really use some input on graphs and transducers for our 03 282 we just got. My experience is with 2 boats over the past 14 years in freshwater and inshore. During this time I used Lowrance graphs and transom mounted transducers, with 2d, chirp, down and side imaging. The 282 came with...

The survey was back in August, we've owned the boat since Sept. He explained it pretty much as I did in the original post. The transom is not the issue, it is at the mounting points of the trim tab. The drill bit is a good idea, I'll give it a try when I pull the mounting screws, thank you.

Great idea, I will try that.

Hmm, I'm not sure why that is not working for you. Probably need to ask an admin.

You have to go to your profile and insert it into your "signature" for it to be down there.

Ok I did that one your way, and it worked...

Use the "Insert Image" one to the left and up from the one you used.

2. Did I pass the test? :)

Good call. It's on the list of to does. :)

Ok, I am looking for input; one of the things the surveyor found on our 03 282 was moisture at the mounting points of the trim tabs. He used a moisture meter and mallet to check the hull. Besides the meter and mallet he pointed out the rust running from the mounting screws. He indicated that it...
