Humminbird XPLORE 9 CMSI+ Product Description
Discover the Waters Like Never Before
Imagine gliding across a serene lake at dawn, your boat humming softly as the XPLORE 9 CMSI+ paints a vivid picture of the hidden world beneath. This isn't just a fish finder—it's your edge on the water, blending cutting-edge sonar tech with effortless controls to turn every outing into a trophy hunt. Anglers rave about how its crystal-clear images reveal fish hugging structure or schooling mid-water, saving hours of blind casting.
What sets it apart? The Cross Touch interface lets you swipe or tap like a smartphone, or stick to reliable keys if gloves get in the way. Paired with the included XM 14 HW CMSI T transducer, it delivers MEGA Side Imaging+ that stretches out to 200 feet per side, spotting baitfish balls and weedlines with jaw-dropping detail.
Master Structure and Fish with MEGA Imaging+
Dive deeper into MEGA Down Imaging+, where shadows give way to sharp silhouettes of bass ambushing crayfish or walleye cruising drop-offs. This upgrade cranks up detail by 20% and range by 60% over standard MEGA, letting you pinpoint sweet spots up to 200 feet down. Switch to Dual Spectrum CHIRP for traditional 2D views: wide mode sweeps broad areas for initial searches, narrow mode zooms in on individual targets with arch separation down to 2.5 inches.
Pro tip: Layer these views side-by-side on split-screen to correlate structure with fish—perfect for jigging or trolling in murky reservoirs. Forget guesswork; let the sonar do the scouting.
Navigate Confidently with Built-in GPS and Charts
Built-in GPS pairs with Humminbird Basemap covering over 10,000 lakes and U.S. coastal areas, highlighting contours, hazards, and ramps. It ships with LakeMaster and CoastMaster cards for 13 U.S. and Canada regions, so you're ready to chase smallmouth on the Great Lakes or reds in the shallows.
AutoChart Live turns your boat into a cartographer: as you idle, it logs depth, hardness, and veg in real-time, building custom maps with 8 hours of storage (expandable via SD). Mark hotspots with 10,000 waypoints, color-code them by species, and sync to your phone for pre-trip planning.
Stay Connected in the One-Boat Network
Ethernet, Bluetooth, Wi-Fi, and NMEA 2000 mean this unit plays nice with your entire setup. Link to Minn Kota i-Pilot for spot-lock precision, Talon anchors for stealthy drifts, or even radar for low-light runs. Bluetooth handles software updates and notifications without leaving the helm.
Build a networked fleet: share sonar across heads, control downriggers, or integrate MEGA 360/Live for 360-degree awareness. It's designed for real anglers who demand integration without complexity.
Simple Setup for Maximum Uptime
Mount it gimbal-style or in-dash, wire via 10.8-20 VDC, and transom-mount the transducer—done in under an hour. The 9-inch 1280x720 Full HD TFT display shines in sunlight, with 24-bit color for nuanced reads. Sonar recording and snapshots capture hot bites for later analysis.
Maintenance is straightforward: rinse after saltwater, update firmware wirelessly, and store dry. Expect reliable performance with 1000W RMS power pushing depths to 1200 feet standard (3500 optional).
