i'mlooking for a plain depth finder. any good recommendations, i do not need all the bells and whistle.
what's better, through hull or transom mount. do the throughh hull transducers require making a hole in the hull? can it be done with Gypsy still in the water? are they less acurate than the transome mount ones?

If it were me, I'd look at the array of fishfinders out there. Not only can you "see" all the little fishies, it will show you the bottom composition. Great if you ever anchor out.

And get a "see-thru-the-hull" type transponder. It just sticks to the inside of the hull with a glob of epoxy. Easy, and no hole necessary in the hull.
