For several years the hull mounted transducer beneath the engine stayed securely in place and worked fine. Last season it popped free from the "glue" holding it in place. I do not know what agent the dealer had used for the install, but it had the grey appearance of JB Weld and held well for over 18 years. The several bonding agents I tried since then hold poorly and the transducer usually breaks free within a few trips on the lake, apparently in part due to the vibrations and slight flexing of the hull, but mostly due to the poor bonding. And I did clean and lightly sand the mounting surfaces.
What bonding agent (brand and formula nomenclature) has worked well for you, and will not interfere with the signal that has to pass thru this glue? Appreciate all suggestions as I am at end of ideas. I am about ready to just forget about the depth finder!
Thank you for all replies.
