I followed my instructions with the unit and had good results. It was a 998 w/SI

Tips,
read the instructions
make sure that the transducer is centered between the rows of rivets(on the bottom of the boat). You want a smooth surface in front of the transducer. The instructions may say a distance to the side of the motor-mine was 15".
The SI transducer has changed from my unit. I think that it should be mounted above the bottom of the boat to protect it from striking obstructions or drag at high speed.

Consider a High Speed trandsducer with the y cable- this will give you good 2D readings.
Consider a mounting plate for your transducers-less holes in the hull.

Good Luck

Great units
