I appreciate the response.
Messing with the internals of a motor is too ambitious for me. As well as being beyond my skill level.
I missed the likelihood of fouling the prop with line in front although the loss of a few toes did occur to me. I don't use fins due to bad knees. I am considering raising the seat with a pedestal but that means I can't get the lean bar over my chunky self so I have put that off for now.
I will mount the transducer off the deck and will look for swing away ideas on here. I plan to steal the keel idea that I saw here. I did wonder if filling in between the spokes on the transport wheel would work as a keel but I think that would be more effort that just making a keel.
