AIRMAR Transducer options with this unit

Did you know that the transducer used with a fish finder is just as important as the fish finder itself?

The transducer is the 'eyes' and 'ears' when it comes to fish finder performance. At Marine Deals we believe that it's vital that a quality transducer is used to maximize fish finder picture clarity and accuracy. That's why we provide the option to choose an AIRMAR transducer with this unit (and not only the standard Lowrance transducer range).

Why Airmar?

AIRMAR is recognized as a world leader in fish finder transducer technology and have developed some of the highest quality transducers available today. Airmar transducers feature ceramic or multi-ceramic elements, which are the most effective element material for transmitting and receiving the sonar signal underneath the water. An Airmar transducer will improve definition , fish detection and deep water performance.
