Hobie PA Ducer mount

You could try the scupper mount that Lowrance sells. It is about $40 and seems like a better option then cutting into your boat. You will have to mount it in the scupper hole in front of your seat so you can still use a bait tank in the back. I think I am going to go this route.

Hi Rocky - take a couple pics of the new install and let me know how much better it works ok...?

(I know I answered this, but it poofed.)

Yup, I'll document the install and post pictures. I've never had a "shoot-thru" installation, so I won't be able to judge if this one is "better." I will report on how it works, though.

"I am looking at going through the scupper holes on my PA. I was looking at the Lowrance scupper mount. Until I noticed that all it is is a modified sprinkler head. I had several extra Toro sprinkler heads in my garage and they are the same. Just a little modification. So before you spend $54 dollars on the the lowrance mount. take a look at the $1.50 sprinkler. Fits right in the scupper whole."
