guys thank you very much for your responses.

Currently I am working on getting different technologies for our contacts, so cable will be improve in order to avoid corrosion but one think that i would recommend you is to clean your contacts from unit and transducers or power cable when you removed from the kayak, as you mentioned salt + voltage will cause corrosion, this helped me to avoid corrosion on my unit.

DMRIDES I like the idea about the sun cover, if you don't mind I would share your idea with the team.

As you saw mi name is carlos Gonzalez and I am Mechanical design engineer from Lowrance, I am not an expert on all this stuff but i would like to help you if you have questions regarding Connectors, cables and XDCR's, this also will help me to understand the problems we have on the field.

Cheers!

PS, be patience with my bad english.
