Subject: RE: Lowrance structure scan transducer ranger 620

Depends on what year 620 you have and what other items you have in the rear of the boat. My 05 620 has a step that wouldnt me allow a flush mount as the slope out to the sides would have reflected the side signal. I have a jack plate and considered mounting it off that. Issue was that it would have sit 4-5" further away from my transom and would have been useless on the port side due to my kicker. I really wanted to use the ss when trolling so kicker is down and would have reflected signal. Would have worked fine if just using the main engine n kicker was trimmed up. Ended up mounting on the transom at lowest point just below my jackplate. I get some interference from kicker but a little trim up helps. I can get very good imaging up to about 5-6 mph this way. I've talked to some guys who say when correctly mounted you can get side imaging at 20mph plus but Im skeptical of that.
