{"product_id":"apl080085","title":"Garmin Jack Plate Transducer Mount, For DownVü \u0026 SideVü Transducers, 4\/8\/12-Pin Compatible, Adjustable Angle","description":"\u003ch6\u003eOverview\u003c\/h6\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe Garmin 010-12106-10 is a jack plate mount for Garmin DownVü and SideVü scanning transducers that use 4-, 8-, or 12-pin connections. It moves the transducer to the jack plate and lets you set the angle so the transducer face sits parallel with the water surface.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis mounting style helps you get useful scanning returns at slower speeds while keeping a transducer from hanging off the transom. When the boat is up on plane, the transducer rides out of the water so sonar does not track bottom at speed.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eBy relocating the transducer to the jack plate, the mount also reduces drag and keeps the transducer better protected from underwater obstructions that can be common around docks, flats, and shallow ramps.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch6\u003eKey features\u003c\/h6\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFits compatible Garmin scanning transducers with 4-, 8-, or 12-pin connectors for DownVü and SideVü use\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eJack plate mounting position keeps the transducer supported and less exposed to underwater strikes\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAdjustable angle helps align the transducer face with the water surface for consistent returns\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMount location avoids added drag and lifts the transducer clear of the water when the boat is on plane\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eUseful when you want low-speed scanning performance without bottom tracking during higher-speed runs\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch6\u003eCompatibility and fit\u003c\/h6\u003e\u003cp\u003eConfirm your transducer is a Garmin scanning model with a 4-, 8-, or 12-pin plug, and verify the transducer body has clearance from the jack plate, outboard, and steering hardware through full trim and jack plate travel. This accessory is intended for jack plate installation rather than a direct transom mount.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch6\u003eInstallation and setup\u003c\/h6\u003e\u003cp\u003eAfter the bracket is secured, set the transducer angle so the bottom face is parallel with the waterline at rest. Route the cable up the jack plate with enough slack for movement, then secure it so it cannot chafe, pinch, or snag when the engine is trimmed or the plate is adjusted.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch6\u003eUse cases on board\u003c\/h6\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis mount makes sense for outboard boats with a jack plate that rely on scanning sonar for fishing and structure work, especially in areas where debris and shallow water can put a transom-mounted transducer at risk. It also helps when the transom is crowded with steps, tabs, or other hardware and you need a cleaner mounting location.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Garmin","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51554270118134,"sku":"APL080085","price":29.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0809\/6658\/2518\/files\/0694294_apl080085_jpeg.jpg?v=1787832559","url":"https:\/\/www.apollolighting.com\/products\/apl080085","provider":"Apollo Lighting","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
