Provides water depth information in front of the boat to allow boaters to confidently navigate shallow or poorly charted waters Look ahead view is capable of up to 8 times the depth however the normal operating range is 4 to 5 times the depth. Ex 10′ depth would provide a 80′ forward view Operates at 180kHz to reduce interference from tradition 200kHz echo sounders. Transmits and receives up to ten times faster than previous forward looking systems providing a real time update.
