[Public-List] In-Hull Transducers

[jon]

The transducer definitely needs to be surrounded by fluid, water, antifreeze 
or apparently mineral oil. Regardless there needs to be no air bubbles. Some 
transducers are permanently epoxied in place but this can be dodgy since 
they might not work in the precise place that you have just stuck them to!!
