Subject: RE: LSS1 install on 619 Ranger?

The glassed-in is usually below & in front of the step on the 620's I've seen and on mine. I have seen some mount the LSS1 flush mount to the underside of the step. Now depends on how the sides of the step lay out if they are angled out or straight down, don't remember what the 08 looks like but it's important to note how the hull runs as you may get hull interference when shooting to the sides. Know the LSS1 doesn't shoot out 0degrees horizontally. There is a slight angle downward at which the singal shoots out. Your best bet is to use a transom mount. Some guys like bass boat guys have used a wedge mount to mount & also a breakaway mount for those who fish heavy cover/timber, that way you won't crush/break the LSS1 when contacting structure. Now me, I don't fish a ton of standing timber much so I don't worry about that. I will still try to get a pic later this evening.
