Bedding thru hulls with 5200

A while back I hit a submerged object in the Hudson river. It looked like a debris field behind the boat after the props got thru with whatever it was. I stopped for while and checked the bilge for water and since it seemed alright I continued home with a slight vibration and a fishfinder that wouldn't read bottom.

Well I pulled the boat yesterday and found the crappy little puck transducer from my SeaMax fishfinder was missing. The only thing holding the remnants of the transducer in place and plugging the 1" hole was the 5200. I think I got lucky.
