    Jim,

    Before you do that, go to your local WalMart and buy one of the low cost
    Humminbird depthfinders. They sell for less than $100. I believe I paid $89
    for a
    Humminbird Pirhana. Mount the transducer on the inside of the hull in a glob
    of silicone. If it works, you have saved a couple of hundred bucks. If it
    doesn't, you can always mount the depthfinder in your dinghy. If you don't
    have a
    cored hull, there is a very good chance that it will work.
