I have the Malibu stealth 12 with the Garmin striker 4 plus.
If you want I can send you some pics of how I have it set up.
I used the yak attack gear track 4 inch size with their fish finder mount. If you go that route make sure it’s for the Garmin one.

I have done them all, goop, duct seal, etc.

I ended up going with the Scotty over the side mount and love it. It does catch eel grass and such but i simple just pull it off. The readings are far truer then through hull and the drag is minimal.

I just ordered the Scotty mount on amazon. for $23 Its worth a try. If I don't like it, I'll mount it in the hull.
