Last fall I installed a new combo transducer on the transom of my StarCraft Superfisherman 190. There is a 5 foot rooster tail it is throwing up. No big deal until I mounted my kicker, now that rooster tail is hitting the kicker and throwing the water onto the casting platform and into the battery box. Found an inch of water in there. That's not good. Should I lower it or raise it. I mounted it exactly in the same spot as the old Garmin transducer, used the old holes as reference. What do you all think? I say lower it a 1/4 inch, a pal says raise it. It shows the exact depth my second and third sonars show. Not a big job, but I want to adjust it once. Thanks Johnny D

As per usual they had the boaters safety exam booth at the sportsman show, so I said what the heck ill try it because you only have to pay if you pass. Keep in mind I've never looked at the book or any kind of study guide.. Walk in there write the 50 mc test in 15 minutes and pass with an 80. The test is a joke in my opinion. When it's to get a licence to drive something that could potentially kill you and/or other people you'd think it would be a little more difficult. Some will say that I probably had background knowledge or have been around boats a lot, which is partially true, but to be honest I still couldn't even tell you which side is port and which is starboard. Tonight I'm gonna sit down and read the actual book to learn the information, just wanted your thoughts.
