The unit runs on 12 to 20 Vdc, carries an IPX7 water rating, and uses a 3 A fast-acting fuse (rated current 1.5 A), which lines up well with typical 12 V boat electrical systems.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eFor anglers who like to build their own bottom picture over time, Quickdraw Contours lets you record maps with 1-foot contours.

Sonar views vary by configuration, with some packages adding SideVü coverage in addition to ClearVü and Traditional CHIRP.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e010-02550-00: Display size 4-inch; sonar type ClearVü and Traditional CHIRP.

Includes a GT20-TM transducer with a 20 ft cable, which is a common fit for smaller consoles where screen space is limited but you still want ClearVü detail.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e010-02552-00: Display size 7-inch; sonar type ClearVü and Traditional CHIRP. Includes a GT20-TM transducer with a 20 ft cable, giving more screen area for splitting views and reading returns while running or trolling.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e010-02553-00: Display size 7-inch; sonar type SideVü, ClearVü and Traditional CHIRP. Includes a GT52HW-TM transducer, which adds SideVü coverage to help scan structure to port and starboard while you idle along banks or edges.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e010-02554-00: Display size 9-inch; sonar type SideVü, ClearVü and Traditional CHIRP. Includes a GT52HW-TM transducer, pairing the larger screen with SideVü for easier interpretation when you want more separation between sonar panes.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch6\u003eInstallation and setup\u003c\/h6\u003e\u003cp\u003ePlan the mounting location with a clear sightline from the helm and enough room to tilt the unit for glare control. A bracket-style setup works well on most center consoles, side consoles, and compact helm pods, and it also keeps service access simple for the power and transducer connections.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eTransducer placement matters more than most people expect. Mount it where it stays in clean water at speed and is clear of strakes, steps, and heavy turbulence. Route the cable to avoid sharp bends and areas where it can be crushed by hatches or pinched by steering and throttle movement.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch6\u003eElectrical and system integration\u003c\/h6\u003e\u003cp\u003ePower is straightforward on a 12 V boat: the unit accepts 12 to 20 Vdc, draws up to 1.5 A, and uses a 3 A fast-acting fuse. On boats with noisy electrical systems, it helps to keep the fishfinder wiring away from ignition components and high-current motor feeds, and to make sure the connections are fully seated so the unit does not appear to lose power underway.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch6\u003eOn-board use\u003c\/h6\u003e\u003cp\u003eBuilt-in GPS is most useful when you treat it like a fishing log: mark waypoints for productive edges, reefs, and bait holds, then use routes and tracks to repeat passes. GPS reception improves when the unit has a clear view of the sky; when it is mounted inside a cabin, placing it close to a window helps.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis setup fits skiffs, bay boats, center consoles, and small offshore rigs that want an easy fishfinder with GPS and Quickdraw mapping, without moving into a full networked chartplotter system.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch6\u003eMaintenance and care\u003c\/h6\u003e\u003cp\u003eAfter saltwater days, rinse the exterior with fresh water and wipe the screen with a soft cloth. Periodically check the transducer face for growth and confirm the mounting hardware has not loosened from vibration, especially after trailering or rough-water runs.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Garmin","offers":[{"title":"4\" \/ ClearVü and Traditional CHIRP","offer_id":52270911291573,"sku":"QBP375276-V1","price":199.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false},{"title":"5\" \/ ClearVü and Traditional CHIRP","offer_id":52270911324341,"sku":"QBP375276-V2","price":349.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false},{"title":"7\" \/ ClearVü and Traditional CHIRP","offer_id":52270911357109,"sku":"QBP375276-V3","price":419.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false},{"title":"7\" \/ SideVü, ClearVü and Traditional CHIRP","offer_id":52270911389877,"sku":"QBP375276-V4","price":519.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false},{"title":"9\" \/ SideVü, ClearVü and Traditional CHIRP","offer_id":52270911422645,"sku":"QBP375276-V5","price":649.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0977\/8171\/1029\/files\/1306353_qbp375276.webp?v=1771551841","url":"https:\/\/www.qualityboatparts.com\/products\/qbp375276","provider":"Quality Boat Parts","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
