[QUOTE="MuskyManiac, post: 28547, member: 381"] I just upgraded my Lowrance so I can have StructureScan. Really looking forward to it. I know in the manual it says you can mount it like a skimmer for high-speed bottom reading or it can be mounted higher so it comes out of the water on plane and that way you don't have to worry about drag/spray as well as less chance for damage. I just didn't know how effective these transducers were when on plane. Right now I'm leaning towards putting it higher on the transom so it is out of the water when I'm on plane. I was also thinking about mounting the structure transducer on the other side of the boat than my 2D transducer, but it sounds like I might want to have it on the same side. From Lowrance: "The StructureScan transducer should be installed within approximately one foot of the Broadband sounder transducer (2D) to get optimum performance from the Downscan Overlay feature."
