Airmar M260 In-Hull Transducer
R30,900.00
Lowrance Xsonic Plug with a 12m cable.
The performance of Airmar’s “1 kW, 260 family” of transducers is legendary. The combination of power and sensitivity has made this the high-performing transducer of choice with conventional fishfinders. Operating at 50 and 200 kHz, the narrow, 6° beam at 200 kHz provides excellent target resolution and crisp images of fish holding tight to wrecks and reefs. The 50 kHz is excellent at deep-water detection, and its wide 19° beam yields broad coverage under the boat.
The transducer is installed in the included tank which is cut to the boat’s deadrise angle and affixed inside the hull. When the transducer is placed inside the tank, it is properly oriented for optimal performance. The M260 is a popular choice for customers not wanting to drill a hole in their hull and for trailered or multi-hulled boats.
Setting the In-Hull Standard It’s true! Excellent performance can be achieved from an in-hull mounted transducer. The M260 is designed with a 200 kHz element, which provides performance resulting in higher-resolution without sacrificing sensitivity. Combined with a seven-element 50 kHz array, this in-hull has excellent deep-water detection. Because the M260 has narrow beams at both frequencies, separation of individual targets and the ability to distinguish between fish and the bottom makes finding fish easy.
All-Out Fishfinding Performance! Optimal fishfinder performance no longer requires drilling a hole in the hull! The M260 is able to transmit and receive through solid fiberglass, displaying sharp detailed images. Track the bottom at speeds exceeding 30 knots (34 MPH)! Installation simply requires adhering the tank to the inside of the vessel, leaving a clean and smooth hull exterior!
