A thru-hull transducer is mounting through the hull of the boat. So you would actually take the boat out of the water, drill a hole in the boat approx 2" in diameter(depends on transducer model) and mount the transducer "thru-hull."

--

A transom-mount transducer is a transducer bolted to the transom of a boat.

Both kinds of transducers need to be submerged in the water for them to work correctly.

I dont know a whole lot about this but I do know you dont drill a hole thru the hull. I have a ranger and from the factory mine was placed inside of the hull under my battery storage no hole needed to be drilled. But on a transom mount you have to drill holes into the transom.

Boat builders manfacture their crafts' in three basic transom heights. The transom height is measured from the top of the transom, (where the engine bolts on), straight down to the keel, (bottom middle), of the boat. A 15'' transom would require a shortshaft engine. A 20" transom would need a longshaft outboard, and a boat with a 25" transom, would require a extra longshaft engine.

How do you install a transom saver?

To install a transom saver, first, position the transom saver against the boat's transom, ensuring it rests securely and aligns with the motor's lower unit. Next, adjust the length of the transom saver to fit snugly, then secure it in place using the provided clamps or straps. Finally, double-check that all connections are tight and that the transom saver is stable, preventing any movement during transport. Always refer to the manufacturer's instructions for specific installation guidelines.
