So I finally installed the garmin fishfinder on my sportster. Didn't take very long to fish the transducer wire to the helm and even shorter to wire into my fuse box. I was really limited to where I can mount it so I just used your recommendation.
Final product
Mounting
Running wires through helm cover. I used protective mesh and sealed the hole with RTV (silicone)
I placed the transducer in the hull. I used a wire brush and alcohol to clean the surface first. I placed a thin layer of RTV it hold it in place
Unfortunately, I have not taking it out on the water yet to test the depth/fish finder. I am hoping I don't have to externally mount the transducer.
