Transducer arm over the side. No muss, no fuss. THIS... +1

I like the Mad Frog Liberator transducer arm, it's sleeker than the Ram and swings up out of the water easily.

I put a thick bed of silicon on the inside of the hull and pushed the transducer into the middle all the way to the hull. The silicon formed a seal around the transducer and once it cured holds it in place. Mine works great, no problems in over a year.

I have this Humminbird kit in my Commander, and it works great. Put a little water in it and it works just as well as it does hanging over the side. Plus, it's out of the way and doesn't hang on anything. I think ACK sells them for about $39. http://fishfinders.factoryoutletstore.co...alogitemid=9796

I went the other way. Had it in the water, now I have it through the hull. Used duct seal, and it works great. I don't see any loss of resolution.
