Airmar P79

Airmar's P79 in-hull transducer easily adjusts to hull deadrise angles up to 22°. This ensures that the beam is vertically oriented to receive echos resulting in accurate depth readings. Unlike traditional "puck" type transducers, our P79 consists of a base that is bonded to the hull and filled with liquid. The separate transducer then attaches to the base with a twist lock. The sound waves travel more efficiently though the liquid, giving the best possible performance.

Applications

  • Planing Hull Powerboats
  • Cruising Sailboats
  • Aluminium Hulls less than 1/8" thick
  • Excellent Performance in Shallow Water Boats
  • Excellent Bass and Jet boat Performance
  • In-hull installation over solid fibreglass only

Features

  • Good target detail in shallow water at 200 kHz and good deep water bottom tracking at 50kHz
  • In-hull mounting eliminates turbulence under the transducer's face resulting in clear bottom images- even at boat speeds above 20 knots
  • Innovative two piece design allows the transducer to be easily removed for service or storage
    No adhesive layer between transducer face and hull to absorb sound waves
