Hobie PA Question
 

For those of you who have the new PA's with the lowrance ready built in transducer mount, when/if you go out fishing the bay or saltwaters, do you unscrew that plate covering the transducer and rinse it off? I feel like its a goos place for salt to build up and damage some wires. Just a thought before I buy one

I only spray my hose up there, looks like it gets flushed pretty good that way.

Same as Raskal. I don't remove the cover plate.
I have one of those collapsable tables that I unload my PA on to. Give it the full rinse down from above, then it goes up on its side for a rinse of the bottom.
While it's on its belly, I rinse down the wire hole, then when it's on its side, I hit it hit with the hose from below. Some sand and whatnot comes out but nothing major. Then when I roll it back onto its belly, another shot of water from above.

I never do anything from below, but I do shoot water down the wire hole from the top when I think of it - usually when I have tons of sand stuck to the hull to remind me.

That doesnt sound too painful. As if it was gonna be my make or break decision lol
