Float Tube Mount
I bought this to use on my old Bucks Bags Colt Giant pontoon. The first time I used the fish finder, I just held it in my hand or rested it on the pontoon with the transducer floating off to the side. Using the mount definitely seemed to improve the accuracy, I'm assuming because it held the transducer more securely. I still need to figure out the best place to mount the strap so that the fish finder is in the right position.One note, the instructions aren't the best. If you go to Hawkeye's website there's a picture showing how the transducer is attached to the mount and it's fairly easy to figure out. Remember to flip the transducer up before entering/exiting water do that you don't damage it.

You do need spacers to make it fit well
This was what I was looking for but it could be a bit better. I am fortunate to have an extremely smooth kayak hull (Eddyline Caribbean) so the suction cup does attach. I have for now kept it at the most flat part of the hull just before the curve at the water line. When I am not paddling this is fine but when I paddle the waves and cavitation impact the sonar reading. If I can get the angle on the bracket right I am guessing I can attache it lower but I need to do so when I am in the water. That is the key Item I don't like. The bracket is very small in the sense you don't have a lot of play to angel it away or down from the suction cup. It would be great if there was some flexible adapter of sorts like you can get with a camera mount.I did read reviews and I made certain I had a nylon washer to use as a spacer. I put that on one side of the adapter screw beside the provided spacer. IT was enough to fill that gap so when I tightened the screw it dod not bend or break the "wings" on the holder. It was a perfect fit.

Decent for the price
A little slow with water depth changes, but a decent product for the money. And the adapter for the battery box works well with toy car battery.

Grab a Suction Cup Mount!
This thing works great, but I would only trust the suction strength when attaching it to a Stick-on Suction Cup mount (The kind for GPS devices), if its attached to anything slightly porous it will pop off too easily. Just buy the $8 mount, stick it to a flat spot on your Kayak/Boat and you have a solid, instantly removable Fish Finder!
