Title: Senior moment, word on tip of toung - help
Post by: Trukinbear on July 22, 2013, 09:29:16 AM
Senior moment, what is this do-hickey called that covers the hole in the transom where speed tube, or transducer cable comes through? Hard to order when you can't remember what it's called.

Just the usual, sensors for speed, temp, and depth.

Not a cable bellows, but thanks.

Perhaps this should be the million dollar question on some game show?

Oh, Duh - Pitot Tube Shield
I was sure it had a more technical sounding name.

Hmmm, with billet this, and anodized that I'm shocked to find that everyone seems to carry only this one Sea Dog branded part? No choices at all, or still another name for it I'm not finding?

Were you ever able to change the 0 to an O people would stop asking.
