![[Linked Image]](https://texasfishingforum.com/forums/pics/userpics/2019/09/full-54482-25743-20190923_122649.jpg) I broke the bracket off and was wanting to go ahead and mount in the hull since the transducer and wires seem to be okay still. Is this possible or do you need a different type transducer to mount in hull? Anyone ever did this? Thanks!

That is the XNT 9 DI T Humminbird transducer.
When the DI units first came out, that transducer was available as a shoot-thru kit with epoxy instead of the plastic transom mount.
BUT that is no longer recommended as the higher frequencies that are used for 2D and DI with that model don't work well for shoot-thru---455 kHz and 800 kHz.
Sooooo, yes you can, but may not like the results.
Helix 12 CHIRP MEGA SI+ GPS G3N and G4N, 1198c SI, SOLIX 10 SI G3,
Helix 8 MEGA SI+ GPS G4N, SOLIX 12 SI and G3, MEGA 360, MEGA LIVE TL, RC-1

Looks like a spring back bracket is in your future. Good luck
