I am wondering if that might energy might contribute to some stunned operator behaviours? Don > On Feb 22, 2017, at 2:21 PM, Ronald B. Frerker via CnC-List > wrote: > > that much power probably stuns the fish, which then floats to the surface to > be picked up… :^) > > — Fred > ___

Re: Stus-List New sonar transducer

While doing environmental sampling, we found that electricity really does improve fishing; and they do float nicely to the surface.  Netting is so much cleaner than getting a hook out.Of course, what we did afterward was really messy!RonWild CheriC&C 30-1STL   I’m thinking it makes the fisherma

Re: Stus-List New sonar transducer

Jeremy — to get greater depths, you need a transducer that will accept more power from the sounder, as well as a sounder that can provide that power. The typical transducer most of us have on our boats is rated at 60 watts; but they’ll take up to 100 watts if the sounder can provide that much p

Re: Stus-List New sonar transducer

The Airmar P79 NMEA that I installed gave me good reading when crossing Lake Ontario last summer. I saw 680ft. My old B&G Hecta was starting to give random values at 600ft. I was supprised as the P79 is an inhull transducer. Pierre TremblayAvalanche #54988C&C38-3 WK, hull #76 Le mercredi 22

Re: Stus-List New sonar transducer

@Marek - Tri-data (depth, temp, speed over water) sounds interesting. I'll check into that. If I go chartplotter, I'll need to figure is where to mount the head unit. With a tiller, the wheel pedestal is out of the question. @Rick - Support for depth over 200ft is useful to me for setting praw

Jeremy; In 24 years of keelboat ownership, covering several boats and several iterations of sounders and plotter/sounders from Raymarine, Garmin, Lawrence, and Standard Horizon, I don’t recall ever having a sounder that would work for depths over 200 feet. I suspect there are “professional”

Re: Stus-List New sonar transducer

I would go for a combination. Actually, I did. When I purchased this boat, there was no instruments onboard. I wanted depth, but I quickly found that for little more and more or less the same effort installing, you can get a basic chartplotter. Btw. If you are installing a through hull transduce
