Depth performance is rated to 549 m (1800 ft) at 50 kHz and 244 m (800 ft) at 200 kHz, and it also includes fast-response water temperature sensing for compatible displays.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe housing sits close to the hull and extends less than 6.35 mm (0.25 in) below it, which helps on boats that get trailered or sit on lifts where protrusions are more likely to get bumped.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch6\u003eKey features\u003c\/h6\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e1 kW output with traditional dual-frequency 50\/200 kHz elements\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e22° beam at 50 kHz and 6° beam at 200 kHz for a mix of broad coverage and tighter target definition\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e0° tilted element intended for install points with 0° to 7° hull deadrise\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLow-profile bronze thru-hull housing that extends less than 6.35 mm (0.25 in) below the hull\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBuilt-in water temperature sensing (compatible display required)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGarmin 6-pin connector for direct connection to compatible Garmin sonar inputs\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch6\u003eCompatibility and fit\u003c\/h6\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis is a thru-hull style transducer, so fit starts with the hull deadrise at the mounting location. The 0° version is meant for near-flat sections of hull where the deadrise at the install point measures 0° to 7°, keeping the sonar beam aimed close to straight down without adding a fairing block.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eBecause the housing is bronze, plan for normal below-waterline corrosion practices for your boat, including bonding and appropriate anodes where required by your setup. If your hull is aluminum or steel, confirm the housing material matches your corrosion plan before committing to a thru-hull hole.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch6\u003eInstallation and setup\u003c\/h6\u003e\u003cp\u003ePick a spot that stays in clean, aeration-free water underway. Avoid areas behind steps, strakes, intakes, and prop wash, since bubbles and turbulence can cause dropouts at speed. Many powerboats place a thru-hull close to the centerline and forward of the engines, while sailboats typically avoid areas where keel or hull turbulence forms.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eYou will need interior access to tighten the mounting hardware. Use a below-waterline marine sealant and allow full cure time before launching, then verify the reading at the dock and again at cruising speed.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch6\u003eElectrical and system integration\u003c\/h6\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe attached Garmin 6-pin connector plugs into compatible Garmin sonar ports. If your display, sounder module, or wiring harness uses a different connector style, use the correct adapter so the 50\/200 kHz sonar elements and temperature lead map correctly to the unit.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch6\u003eUse cases on board\u003c\/h6\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis transducer is a practical match for coastal cruising, offshore runs, and fishing boats that want a higher-power 50\/200 kHz setup for bottom tracking and structure work. It also suits trailered and lift-kept boats that need a low-profile thru-hull while still stepping up to 1 kW power.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch6\u003eMaintenance and care\u003c\/h6\u003e\u003cp\u003eKeep the face clean for consistent returns, especially if the boat stays in the water. If you apply bottom paint, use a product labeled as safe for transducers and avoid building up thick layers on the active surface, since paint buildup can reduce sensitivity.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Garmin","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52268988367029,"sku":"QBP473766","price":1275.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0977\/8171\/1029\/files\/1298757_qbp473766.jpg?v=1771541322","url":"https:\/\/www.qualityboatparts.com\/products\/qbp473766","provider":"Quality Boat Parts","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
