Now I understand. The plan will be to mount the transducer next to the FH above the bottom of the boat so it will not generate a rooster tail. Per your statement, it doesn't need to be below the hull. Thanks

How will it pick up the downrigger balls and lures on the starboard side or opposite side of where its mounted with the engine down and trolling? That's what I can't understand? Setting in the MFD to be able to see around it? Or will it show up on the screen? Thanks Joe

First time post, I just purchased a PS30 transducer and looking for good information on how to mount to a transom with a single outboard. I have a 230WA Cobia with single Yamaha F225 outboard. Questions I have are the following: 1) I can't mount in the center of the transom with the outboard in the way. I have a transducer for sonar on starboard side and a transducer for the fishhawk on port side. I think it would be best to mount offset to center port side towards fishhawk transducer. 2) Once the transducer is mounted, how does the view see around the outboard? If mounted on port side, I will it see downriggers on starboard side with the outboard int eh way of the view. I have attached an image of location where I am thinking of mounting the PS30 transducer. Just to the right of the fishhawk transducer. Is this a good mounting location? Called Garmin support and they were useless on this topic. I was told to buy 2 units so the motor will not interfere. Any input on this would be greatly appreciated.
