How is your 360 transducer and shaft holding up in Fork or other stump filled lakes. Thinking of adding the 360 if it is reliable. Thanks for your help.

In theory you shouldn't be hitting those stumps with the trolling motor if you have 360. You should see them prior to crashing into them.

I think routine wave impact/vibration is a bigger threat than stumps. You'd just about have to hit a stump standing out of the water, or just underneath the surface with the lower-unit turned 90 degrees left or right to direct hit the transducer. I've had 360 for 5 years and I honestly can't recall ever hitting anything with it. I did have a 360 transducer fail from water intrusion, compromised housing, or whatever, that must have been caused by years of wave impact because it never hit anything. Humminbird replaced it in about two weeks after sending it in for inspection minus shipping fees. It was way out of warranty so that was very nice of them to do. You'll love it if you end up getting it.

Haven’t touched it to a stump trolling motor will hit first. 360 is barely below the surface.
