Oldawg,Did your BP101 go on the fritz?If so, I can relate as it pretty much renders you boat useless till aerator, bilge, etc get back to functioning!

The 2D transducer should go in the sump in the bilge, you can mount the side imaging transducer on a Transducer Shield and Saver mount, heres a pic of one of their mounts for the lowrance transducer, but you can get an idea of how theyre built. http://www.transducershieldandsaver.com/home/,

Here you go. There is a slight inaccuracy with these photos. After looking at this project upon completion, the front mounting bolt hole for the e-ladder was used. Decided to take the e-ladder off, as my arms are too short, gut is too big, and the agility is lacking to use it to get in the boat. Hope the pics give you some ideas.CF

This one uses a bracket from Transducer Shield and Saver to protect the transducer.

What speed do these work at mounted on the jack plate? Was thinking I would mount mine on side of jack plate as well but worried about accuracy.

They are out of the water. For a bottom reading while on plane you need a “Y” cable, a transducer to put in the bilge area and a switch to choose which transducer you use…..unless something has changed.Jim EbarbMany, LA (Toledo Bend Lake)2004 Cougar/ 225 OptimaxHumminbird Helix 12 Chirp SI on BalzOut Mount at bowLowrance HDS 7 at bowHumminbird Helix 12 Mega SI on Ram Mount at ConsoleLowrance HDS 8 in dash at console
