Lowrance Elite™ FS 12 BOAT in A BOX with Active Imaging 3-in-1 - 2 Displays, TD, GPS Antenna, Starter Kit, 25' Ethernet Cable — Product description
Transform your boat into a high-tech fishing powerhouse with this complete Lowrance Elite FS 12 Boat in a Box setup. Designed for serious anglers who demand reliable performance without the hassle of piecing together components, this bundle delivers dual 12-inch displays, advanced sonar imaging, precise GPS positioning, and all the networking essentials for instant connectivity. Whether you're chasing bass in shallow waters or trolling deep for walleye, these tools give you the edge to locate fish faster and boat more successfully.
Experience Fish Behavior in Real Time
Imagine watching fish react to your bait as it happens—swimming toward structure, schooling around your lure, or scattering from cover. That's the power of built-in readiness for ActiveTarget 2 live sonar on the Elite FS 12 displays. This cutting-edge technology overlays real-time fish movements onto your charts or sonar screens, letting you adjust your approach on the fly. No more guessing; see exactly what's working and refine your tactics for bigger hauls. While smaller models limit split-screen views, these 12-inch screens offer expansive visibility for multi-panel setups when paired with compatible accessories.
Spot Every Detail with Superior Sonar Imaging
Dive deeper into underwater worlds with the included Active Imaging 3-in-1 transducer, blending CHIRP sonar, SideScan, and DownScan Imaging into one seamless package. FishReveal technology makes targets pop against backgrounds, distinguishing schools from weeds or rocks effortlessly. This isn't just scanning—it's revealing hidden hotspots like submerged timber lines or baitfish balls that hold trophy fish. Anglers report doubling their structure-finding accuracy, turning average days into limit fillers. Upgrade paths to Active Imaging HD open even sharper details with optional modules, keeping your system future-proof.
Chart Your Path to Prime Fishing Grounds
Preloaded C-MAP Discover Onboard charts cover over 19,000 U.S. lakes and 9,400+ in Canada with 1-foot contour lines, highlighting ledges, humps, and channels where fish congregate. Easy Routing and Autorouting simplify navigation, while Genesis Live lets you create custom maps right from your boat. Pair this with the included Point-1 GPS antenna for pinpoint accuracy, even in challenging conditions. Skip hours of blind searching—zero in on high-percentage areas like wind-blown points or current seams that produce consistently.
Effortless Networking and Boat Integration
Setting up a networked system has never been simpler. This kit includes NMEA 2000 starter components, T-joiners, extension cables, a 25-foot Ethernet cable, and more for linking your dual displays seamlessly. Control trolling motors, anchors, and even weather modules wirelessly or via touchscreen. NMEA 2000 integration shares data across devices, so your engine info, fuel levels, and sonar feeds appear everywhere. Dual screens mean one for navigation, another for sonar—perfect for tournaments or guiding trips.
Built for Durability and Everyday Use
These IPX7 waterproof displays feature bright, sunlight-readable touchscreens that respond even with wet gloves. Gimbal mounts, sun covers, and power kits ensure quick dash or pedestal installs. Kayak, bass boat, or center console—compact yet powerful, they handle rough waters without missing a beat. Users love the intuitive interface that rivals premium units, making it ideal for upgrading from basic GPS or sharing with family on casual outings.
Real-World Tips for Maximum Results
To get the most from your setup, mount the Active Imaging transducer at the back third of the hull for optimal SideScan range—up to 300 feet per side in clear water. Calibrate your GPS antenna away from metal interference for rock-solid positioning. Network early to test Ghost motor control or Power-Pole anchoring. In murky lakes, crank up CHIRP frequencies for tighter fish arches. This bundle saves setup headaches, letting you focus on what matters: landing that personal best.
