T&T: Temporary Mount of In Hull Transducer

[Peter Bennett]

I have successfully used LifeCaulk.  I try to avoid silicone sealants
as nothing else sticks where they have once been used.  The sounder
manufacturers recommend epoxy but that seems much to permanent to me.

Before sticking the thing down, he should put in in a plastic bag with
a little water, and hold it against the hull where he's planning to
put it, to see if it works.
