Greetings:
I am installing a new chartplotter on a 32' model 3227..i've mounted the transducer on the transom, and have run the wire up to the bulkhead just below the slider...But how do I run it through the salon?..Do i remove the radio/elect. panel?
Also, does anyone have an easier way to lift this deck??



Thanx

Just an FYI, with your inboards you should be using a through hull or shoot thru transducer mounted forward of the props. With a transom mounted transducer you will get a lot of noise and false readings whenever the props are turning.
