Transducer install question

[jl8200]

Alpha, I just installed a Lowrance unit on my new boat. Those instructions say to mount it at least 1/8" below the bottom of the boat. When I went and ran the boat the transducer was causing water to spray all over while underway. I mounted it even with the boat. I think it needs to pointed a little upward since the boat is angled while running. Hopefully this will resolve that. Also the graph was a little fuzzy(interference) due to the turbulence caused by the spraying. So I will angle it up a little before my next outing. I would recommend doing that before you test run it.
