high speed portable transducer?

[okstate]

I have a fl-18 that I want to use in a small 14 ft. old lund.

what is some of your advice on a portable high speed transducer?

Thanks

and Happy Father's Day!

What kind of advice are you looking for?

You should be able to find the correct 'ducer at most larger sporting goods stores or online. Installation is straight forward. I recommend getting the open water kit, it comes with the transducer, head mount, and power cord. Also getting a swivel or RAM mount for it will help a lot with the limited viewing angles Vexilars have caused by the shroud.

If you fish shallower lakes getting the inline power reducer/filter will help a lot too.

that is the kind of advice I was looking for. Just if any one uses one and what they recommend.

thanks

Check the used market or advertise as a WTB. There are lots of used transducers around. I bought one for $20.00 last year.

Buy a new Vexilar TK Kit with everything you need, mount, power cord, high speed ducer. 19 degree kit is the most versatile on a small boat. This way you just need to spin it off at the knobs and replace it on the ice case for winter use, and back just as easy in the spring.

If the suction cup system is what you wish this too is available in the TK kit direct from Vexilar.

The Vexilar TK-223 Kit is for the FL-8, and the FL-18's.

The Vexilar TK-224 Kit is for the FL-12, FL-20 and the FL-22HD.

They run about $100 for the TK Kits, a bit more for the Duel Bean kits and the Shoot through the hull kits.
