Ready for another custom mod to add to your kayak? We’ve shown you how to install a transducer through a scupper hole (Jackson Cuda thru Scupper transducer install) and now we are going to show you how to add a through hull transducer and depth finder to your kayak. More specifically we will be doing the install on a 2011 Ascend FS12T.
First off lets talk about what you’ll need for the install.
We won’t go into detail about buying a depth finder on this post. If you’ve found your way to this post most likely you have already purchased one and are ready to move on to the install. Just so you know, I will be installing an Eagle Fish Finder 180.
As mentioned before, the kayak we are using for the install is an Ascend FS12T from Bass Pro. Don’t let that stop you from using these instructions as a guide for installing the thru hull transducer on another brand or model kayak. The way we are installing the transducer will work on just about any kayak.
