I stand corrected.

 

I was thinking about the Northstar speed log on my boat, which contains the
temperature sensor. My Garmin plotter/sounder also shows temperature (not
reliably, since the transducer is on the inside of the hull),  so on my
Garmin the thermister is in the depth transducer. Not sure how Raymarine
does it - but I'd guess the thermister is on the transducer for whichever
display the data appears on.

 

Sorry

"As far as water temp goes, there is a thermister in the sensor that changes
resistance in response to temperature change, but it would probably only
show a very few ohms of resistance and might look like normal continuity
unless you have a very sensitive meter."

 

I thought the temp was part of the depth transducer not the paddle / speed?
I will have to re -read this manual.
