Furuno fcv-620 Transducer ?

[jasons215]

Hello Everyone!
I am in the market to purchase the Furuno FCV-620 and my question is: Does anyone know which thru hull fitting to use. I am looking at the Airmar B60 but not sure of which degree to get?? 12 degree or 20 degree tilt? Or does anyone reccomend a different transducer? Does anyone have this unit?

Thanks,

You will want the 20 degree for the 215 Explorer.  Don't have any real experience with the FCV-620 - they seem expensive for what you are getting to me.

I have a 620 and it works extremely well. Its very easy to use and shows a lot of detail. I used a transom mounted transducer, but in my case I only have a 20 cc. I dont know too much about thru hull transducers.
Sorry

Jay-D,
Go with the 20*.  Your deadrise is somewhere around 19*...
