I wish I knew why you guys have had such bad luck with ducers, I've never heard of anyone going through that many.


Its a well known issue, that the company addressed. Seals were bad on some, and manifested itself more quickly on units taken in and out of freezing temps., from what I've read, which would include me. As far as I am aware, nobody is having issues with recently purchased transducers. I know of at least a dozen people who have replaced at least one, and several who have had a few or more(a quick search just now revealed couple guys on WC.com had replaced up to 5 on different boats/units). My guess is that there were a pile of the 'bad' ones sent to a smaller number of retailers. My local marina was one of them. Again, unless there are still a couple dusty ones floating around at a little used retailer, its in the past.
