The Fairing block

A Vessels with a dead rise angle > 10°

B Vessels with dead rise angle < 10°

C Minimum fairing thickness = 12 mm (0.5“)

The transducer must be mounted as parallel to the water

surface as possible.

For hulls with a dead rise angle, the fairing block should be

used to compensate for the dead rise angle.

Displacement hull powerboat

The transducer will not work while it is out of the water, ensure that it is in contact with the water at all speeds. The transducer

must be mounted in an area that provides smooth non-turbulent water ow, unobstructed by keel or propeller shafts. On single-

drive vessels, if the propeller is turning clockwise, mount the transducer on the starboard side. If the propeller is turning counter-

clockwise mount the transducer on the port side. On twin-drive vessels, mount the transducer between the drives.

Stepped hull

Mount just in front of the rst step and and between the

centerline and the rst set of lifting strakes.

Planing hull, outboard and stern-drive

Mount well aft, and between the centerline and the rst

set of lifting strakes.

Planing hull, inboard

Mount well ahead of the propeller(s) and shaft(s), and

between the centerline and the rst set of lifting strakes.

Full keel sailboat

Mount in front of the keel at the point of minimum

deadrise angle and close to the centerline.

Fin keel sailboat

Mount to the side of the centerline and 300 – 600 mm

(12 - 24”) in front of the keel.

Attach the fairing block to a piece of wood

using wood screws (not included).

Measure the deadrise angle (A) at the transducer

mounting location and adjust your saw accordingly.

Cut the fairing block.3

Mark the holes on the outside of the hull using the

mounting template.

Drill the holes.2

Screw the M8 studs into the transducer.

Metal hulls only, install the isolator sleeves over the studs.

Metal hulls only, make sure that the isolatorsleeves will

cover the contact area between the hull and the studs. Use a

heatgun to shrink the isolator sleevs in place.

Use sand paper to remove all burrs and sharp edges to

smooth the installation surface.

Apply marine grade sealant or epoxy to the sanded surfaces

and to the mating edges of the fairing block. Push the

transducer through the lower part of the fairing block, and

press the assembly through the holes in the boat.

Apply marine grade sealant or epoxy to the sanded surfaces

and to the mating edges of the fairing block. Install the

upper part of the fairing block from the inside of the boat.

Apply marine grade sealant or epoxy in and round the holes

of the fairing block. Secure the assembly with the washers

and the nuts.
