I did. If you are not keen about it, a good option is to install a stern saver mounting plate.

Ended up having the dealer install it while the boat was in for warranty work. Replaced the phone holder with this, since the only reason I used that holder was to display speed from an app. The Garmin tracks speed so much better than the app did.

Did you install the transducer yourself? I'm a bit nervous about drilling holes in the hull.
That's where I'm at....even if you do the Stern Saver for the transducer, you still need a hole to run the wiring through, correct?

Yes the hole is already there. Ran my cable up through the small drain hole. Into the drain tube and put a “t” in the tube and capped it off with a rubber gasket. I’ve seen others do the same. I don’t have pics of mine but there’s some on here somewhere. Lol

Now I’m not recommending this. Water can get in if you’re not careful. But others have done this and it’s worked for me.
