There are always discussions on this issue, a couple of recent ones, I have an OB I mounted mine forward of the right rod holder on a ram mount works
good for me, some people mount it in the mast hole but a little hard to reach
but if that doesn't bother you, that is a clean place for mounting.
I would review previous posts for different ideas, then try different placements
while yak on the ground or supported sit down in the seat and try the different
placements. Before your final decision, keep in mind wire harness routing including exit from hull and transducer placement and installation before drilling..."measure twice...drill once"
