My original DataMarine transducer mounts (or "tubes") are flush mounted: they are actually recessed into the hull and glassed over so no mounting flange is exposed.
I recently started moving to TackTick gear and until I tried it, it looked like the Airmar transducers were the same size. Unfortunately it turns out that the Airmar stuff is the tiniest bit smaller diameter than the orginal DM stuff. The threads at the top are even the same, but I get a steady trickle of water when installed.
Has anyone experienced this? I'm hoping there is a transducer out there that will fit the same mount - I really don't want to have to redo/or undo the speedy flush mounting.
I'm half-tempted to go buy some thicker o-rings and see if I can get it to work - I already take the speed transducer out after every race - I supposed I could do the same with depth.
