Garmin GT21-TH S/S Thru-Hull ClearVü & CHIRP, 600W 50/200kHz Traditional, 500W 260 & 455 ClearVü CHIRP

Discover Superior Underwater Visibility with the Garmin GT21-TH Thru-Hull Transducer

Imagine gliding through coastal waters or venturing offshore, where every fish arch and structure below your boat comes into sharp focus. The Garmin GT21-TH thru-hull transducer delivers exactly that, blending traditional sonar precision with advanced CHIRP ClearVü scanning technology. Crafted with a robust stainless steel stem, this mount is tailored for serious anglers who demand reliable performance in demanding marine environments. Whether you're chasing trophy fish in deep waters or mapping out reefs and wrecks, its dual capabilities ensure you never miss a target.

What sets this transducer apart is its ability to cut through noise and clutter, providing crisp images that reveal fish separation and bottom details with unmatched clarity. The built-in fast-response temperature sensor adds another layer of insight, helping you track water conditions that influence fish behavior. Perfect for hulls with deadrises from flat to 25 degrees, it mounts seamlessly thru-hull for consistent readings without the interference of transom setups.

Key Features That Elevate Your Fishing Game

• Traditional Sonar Excellence: 600W power at 50/200 kHz frequencies paints vivid fish arches and excels in target separation, ideal for scanning wide areas in depths up to 1,500 feet.
• CHIRP ClearVü Scanning Sonar: 500W at 260/455 kHz offers photo-like down and side views of structure, with beamwidths of 2.0° x 51° at 260 kHz and 1.4° x 29° at 455 kHz, penetrating to 1,000 feet.
• Stainless Steel Durability: Corrosion-resistant stem ensures longevity in saltwater, backed by thoughtful design for easy integration with Garmin chartplotters.
• Integrated Temperature Sensing: Quick-response sensor provides real-time water temp data to refine your bait and location strategies.
• Extended Reach: 30-foot cable gives flexibility for clean routing from the hull to your display unit.

Why Coastal and Offshore Anglers Swear by This Transducer

In the heat of a tournament or a solo deep-sea run, clarity isn't optional—it's essential. The Garmin GT21-TH shines by minimizing dead zones and maximizing resolution, letting you spot schools huddled near drop-offs or individual lunkers suspended mid-water. Its CHIRP technology sweeps across frequencies for finer detail than fixed sonar, while the thru-hull design keeps the element in constant water contact for stable performance at speed. Anglers report easier jigging spots and wreck fishing thanks to the ClearVü's nearly photographic structure views, turning guesswork into precision strikes.

Pair it with your Garmin ecosystem for seamless data overlay on charts, and you'll gain an edge in understanding baitfish migrations influenced by temperature shifts. It's not just gear; it's the confidence to push limits farther from shore.

What's Included for Hassle-Free Setup

• 8-pin transducer with stainless steel stem
• Fairing block for optimal water flow
• Isolation plate and bushing to prevent vibration and electrolysis
• Complete mounting hardware
• Detailed installation guidance

Everything you need arrives ready to install, with components designed to fit most boats without custom fabrication. Proper thru-hull placement—typically forward of the prop and keel—ensures bubble-free operation for accurate readings.
