BearLake and Saber. Much thx for the tips. It didn't occur to me to epoxy, rather than drill, the plate to the hull. That's a much better idea!
And Saber, your third pic is what I was really after. I wanted to see how you dealt with the angle of the deadrise. And I see that you just ran your plate along the angle line. Not horizontally.
I plan on mounting my t-ducer where you have your trim tabs, since I have none and don't anticipate getting any. I just got back from Cabela's with the bracket, and I think I'm going to cut it in thirds. It's 12" long, but 4" will be plenty of mounting surface.
I'm delighted with all of you guys' help. It's going to result in a real good transducer mount with NO holes drilled into the dreamboat.
And that's a beautiful thing...
Really 'preciate all the good help here.
Thank you,
TG
