Garmin Kayak In-Hull Transducer Mount Product Description
Heading out on the water in your kayak means prioritizing gear that's tough, reliable, and tailored to the unique challenges of paddle-powered fishing. The Garmin Kayak In-Hull Transducer Mount steps up as a game-changer for anglers who want clean sonar readings without the drag or vulnerability of external mounts. By securing your transducer inside the hull, it shields your setup from rocks, waves, and everyday kayak wear, letting you focus on spotting fish rather than worrying about damage.
This mount transforms how you integrate Garmin fishfinders into your kayak adventures, delivering consistent performance in freshwater lakes, coastal bays, or winding rivers. It's all about stealthy, protected mounting that keeps your readings sharp even in choppy conditions.
Streamlined Design for Seamless Kayak Integration
- Secure Internal Mounting: Positions the transducer flush inside the hull, reducing water resistance and eliminating external clutter that could snag lines or bump obstacles.
- Durable Foam Construction: Crafted from high-density foam with a powerful adhesive backing, it bonds firmly to most kayak hull materials like polyethylene or composite, holding up under constant submersion.
- No-Drill Installation: Peel, stick, and position—no power tools or hull modifications needed, preserving your kayak's warranty and integrity.
- Waterproof Reliability: Engineered to endure prolonged exposure without loosening, ensuring your sonar stays operational through long days on the water.
Perfect Match for Your Garmin Setup
Designed specifically for popular Garmin transducers, this mount pairs effortlessly with the HD-ID dual beam (77/200 kHz) for classic 2D sonar coverage and the GT20-TM (77/200 kHz/DownVü) for enhanced down-imaging clarity. Whether you're chasing bass in shallow weed beds or scanning for walleye in deeper channels, it maintains signal integrity by keeping the transducer at the optimal angle.
Anglers love how it works with a range of Garmin combo units, unlocking clearer fish arches, bottom contours, and structure details without the hassle of suction cups or straps that fail in rough water.
Effortless Setup for Quick Water Time
Getting your transducer mounted takes minutes with the included foam pad and straightforward guidelines. Start by selecting a smooth, flat hull section forward of your seat—ideally amidships for balanced readings. Clean the surface thoroughly, apply the adhesive pad, position the transducer face-down in a bed of non-permanent sealant like marine silicone, and let it cure fully before launch.
Pro Tips from Seasoned Kayak Anglers
- Test signal strength at various speeds to fine-tune placement; slower paddle strokes often yield the crispest returns.
- In colder climates, warm the adhesive slightly for better stick; in hot weather, work in shade to avoid premature curing.
- Pair with hull thickness under 1/4 inch for peak performance, avoiding air pockets that muddy your sonar picture.
Elevate Your Kayak Fishing Game
Imagine threading through lily pads without your transducer snagging, or battling wind without losing bottom lock. This in-hull solution shines in sit-on-top kayaks, where external mounts often vibrate loose. It cuts noise from bubbles and turbulence, giving you hyper-accurate depth and fish location data to outsmart spooky species.
For tournament anglers or weekend warriors, it's a low-profile upgrade that boosts confidence—knowing your Garmin gear is protected means more time casting and less tinkering.
Long-Lasting Performance with Simple Care
Keep it performing like new by inspecting the adhesive bond seasonally and reapplying sealant if needed. Rinse with fresh water after saltwater trips to prevent buildup, and store your kayak hull-up to minimize pressure on the mount. With proper attention, it'll serve season after season of epic outings.
Frequently Asked Questions
What types of Garmin transducers work with this kayak in-hull mount?
It's compatible with the Garmin HD-ID dual beam transducer (77/200 kHz) and GT20-TM transducer (77/200 kHz/DownVü), making it ideal for standard fishfinding and advanced imaging needs.
Does installation require any special tools?
No tools are necessary—just clean the hull, apply the adhesive foam pad, and position the transducer. Follow the provided steps closely for a secure fit.
Can this mount be used on all kayak hull materials?
It adheres well to most common kayak hulls like rotomolded polyethylene, ABS, and composites, but test a small area first on unfamiliar materials.
Is it suitable for saltwater kayak fishing?
Yes, the waterproof design handles continuous submersion in saltwater, but regular rinsing helps prolong adhesive life.
How does an in-hull mount improve sonar readings compared to external ones?
It minimizes drag, vibration, and bubble interference, providing clearer, more stable sonar images at various speeds and in rough water.
What if I need to remove or reposition the mount?
Use fishing line or a plastic scraper to gently lift it off, avoiding hull scratches. Clean residue with isopropyl alcohol before reapplying.
Garmin's versatile in-hull transducer mounting solution for kayaks allows fishermen to get out on the water with their favorite Garmin equipment.
The mount fits the Garmin dual beam transducer (77/200 kHz) and GT20-TM transducer (77/200 kHz/DownVü), and is for use with compatible fishfinder and combo marine devices. It can withstand continous water submersion without releasing, all while protecting your transducer (sold separately) within the kayak.
The mount - a foam pad with adhesive - comes with installation instructions. No tools are required for installation; however, follow the instructions carefully to avoid damaging your boat.
Bring in the echo, echoMap or GPSMAP device on the kayak and make your HD-ID or GT20-TM transducer work normally (the device and transducer are sold separately). Install easily and safely...
