It's just rolling around the bottom of my Baja. It looks like it has epoxy on it. Do I use epoxy? Or can I use silicone? How about resin would that stick better? Do I just put more over what is there? I do know I need a nice coat of it with no air bubbles.
Thanks in advance

I tried for 5 years to get the transducer to stick to the bottom of my warlock. Tried everything...epoxy,silicone etc. Nothing worked. I finally ground down a little bit bigger area, and used some glas mat about 2" wide to form a cross over top of it as well as epoxy. Never moved again!!!

use an epoxy mix, you can get it at any hardware store just make sure it is for resin and plastics. Make sure your sender is placed flat to ensure a good reading, especially if you boat near sand bars and shallow water.
