ForwardScan forward sonar gives you a clear view of the bottom ahead of your vessel. Award-winning technology protects your vessel from bottom strikes in shallow, unknown or uncharted waters.
ForwardScan typically provides a forward view of 4-5 times your current depth. So in 3 meters (10 feet) of water, you can see the bottom 12-15 meters (40-50 feet) away. Under ideal conditions, ForwardScan can see even further, up to 8 times your current depth. The 180 kHz ForwardScan transducer is designed to minimize interference from common 200 kHz transducers, allowing it to be used alongside existing depth or echo sounders.
Get a clear and understandable view of the bottom ahead. Bottom color tracking shows the bottom as solid terrain in a clear side view. For even more detailed information, you can switch the view to show the entire water surface. This allows you to identify potential hazards such as dock bollards.
You can also overlay ForwardScan depth data on the chart, which is perfect for boating: The headline view uses colored segments to represent deep, medium and shallow water ahead. Depths are customizable to suit your boat's draft, and a shallow water alarm ensures you never miss a shallow spot.
The ForwardScan transducer is compatible with almost any vessel and hull type thanks to its stainless steel, through-hull mount. The mount and included alignment piece can be installed in 29 mm (1.15 in) thick hulls at a 12-degree V-angle or 19 mm (3/4 in) thick hulls at a 20-degree V-angle.
The self-closing valve allows the ForwardScan transducer to be inserted and removed from the sleeve while in the water, making transducer installation and maintenance easy.
