In-Hull Transducers Overview

These transducers attach to the inside floor of the hull.

The following list describes in-hull transducers.


In-hull transducer
  • Do not require a hole through the hull

  • Send the signal from within the vessel which reduces signal strength

  • Perform well at high speeds, if installed away from turbulence

  • Less likely to sustain external damage (ideal for trailered boats)

  • May require a professional installer for best results

  • May require maintenance to refill the tank or chamber

  • Can be installed while the vessel is in the water

  • Recommended for solid fiberglass hulls only, up to 16 mm (5/8 in.) thickness

  • Recommended for hulls with a deadrise angle of 0 to 25 degrees (models vary) (Deadrise Angle)

  • Not recommended for metal, wood, or cored-hull boats

  • Do not create drag or turbulence

  • Typically do not include a temperature or speed sensor
