Raymarine CPT-DV Trandsom Mount Transducer f/Dragonfly 4 & 5
Raymarine CPT-DV Trandsom Mount Transducer f/Dragonfly 4 & 5 — Product description
Upgrade your on-water adventures with the Raymarine CPT-DV transom mount transducer, designed specifically for Dragonfly 4DV and 5DV models. This compact powerhouse delivers stunning CHIRP DownVision sonar imaging alongside traditional CHIRP sonar, giving you crystal-clear views of the underwater world. Whether you're chasing trophy bass in shallow lakes or scanning deep reefs for snapper, the CPT-DV turns your fishfinder into a precision tool for spotting fish, structure, and bottom contours with ease.
Powerful Sonar Capabilities
- CHIRP DownVision Technology: Produces photo-like images of the seafloor, revealing hidden drop-offs, submerged timber, and baitfish schools that traditional sonar might miss.
- Traditional CHIRP Sonar: Provides reliable fish arches and depth readings up to hundreds of feet, perfect for marking targets in real-time.
- Integrated Temperature Sensor: Tracks water temperature changes to help you locate thermoclines where fish congregate.
- 4-Meter (13.1 ft) Cable: Offers flexible routing for clean, hassle-free installations on most boats.
Why Anglers Trust the CPT-DV
Fishermen rave about how this transducer transforms their Dragonfly unit from a basic depth finder into a full-featured sonar system. Imagine gliding over a weed bed and instantly seeing individual fish darting through it—no guesswork, just results. Its rugged transom-mount design withstands rough conditions, from pounding wakes to saltwater corrosion, ensuring reliable performance season after season.
Real-World Advantages
- Enhanced target separation for distinguishing baitfish from keepers.
- High-resolution imaging that uncovers structure details missed by 2D sonar alone.
- Plug-and-play compatibility that gets you fishing faster without complex setups.
- Compact size ideal for kayaks, bass boats, and center consoles alike.
Simple Transom Mount Installation Tips
Installing the CPT-DV is straightforward, even for DIY enthusiasts. Here's a quick guide to get you up and running:
- Clean and sand the transom surface for a secure bond.
- Select a spot 1/3 from the stern, above the waterline, avoiding strakes or trim tabs.
- Drill pilot holes, apply marine sealant, and secure with stainless screws.
- Route the cable through the hull or along gunwales, securing with zip ties.
- Connect to your Dragonfly power/data cable and test in water before full deployment.
Pro tip: Adjust the transducer angle to run parallel to the water surface at speed for optimal performance—typically a 10-15 degree downward tilt.
Maximize Your Dragonfly Performance
Pair the CPT-DV with Dragonfly's intuitive interface for split-screen views: DownVision on one side, traditional sonar on the other. Dial in sensitivity for your conditions—lower in murky water, higher in clear shallows. Regularly wipe the face clean to prevent marine growth buildup, and store it dry during off-seasons to extend its lifespan.
