Navico XSONIC B150M Thru-Hull Transducer - 9-Pin 10M Cable - 0°

Discover the power of precise underwater detection with the XSONIC B150M thru-hull transducer, a bronze powerhouse designed for anglers chasing fish in coastal waters and beyond. This medium-frequency CHIRP model strikes the perfect balance, delivering exceptional target separation in shallow to moderate depths while maintaining solid performance up to impressive ranges. Whether you're trolling for sport fish or running commercial ops on vessels around 8 meters, its low-profile design hugs the hull seamlessly, minimizing drag and maximizing sonar clarity even at speed.

Why Choose Medium CHIRP for Your Fishing Adventures

Unlike traditional fixed-frequency transducers, the B150M sweeps across a broad 95-155 kHz bandwidth, unlocking 60 kHz of versatile coverage from a single unit. This means sharper images of bait schools, structure, and individual targets in murky inshore bays or clearer offshore readings. Freshwater enthusiasts love how it reveals fish hugging weed lines or suspended mid-water, while saltwater pros appreciate the beam widths that taper from 26° at shallower ranges to 17° deeper down—giving you wider coverage right under the boat.

Built tough with bronze construction, it handles fiberglass or wooden hulls effortlessly. The integrated depth and temperature sensor keeps you informed on water column changes, helping you adjust tactics on the fly. At 300 watts, it punches through thermoclines without overwhelming smaller sounder units, ensuring reliable bottom tracking as your boat planes up.

Seamless Performance Tailored to Real-World Boating

Picture this: You're navigating busy coastal shallows, and suddenly crystal-clear arches pop on screen, marking that trophy lurking near a wreck. The B150M excels here, offering resolution that rivals higher-end setups without the complexity. Its 0° tilt suits dead-flat hull bottoms, projecting sound straight down for undistorted views. The 9-pin black connector and generous 33-foot cable make routing straightforward, even in tight console spaces.

• Beam Versatility: Expansive coverage for locating fish fast
• Speed Tolerance: Tracks reliably up to higher hull speeds
• Temp Sensing: Spot current shifts and fish behavior cues
• Hull Compatibility: Optimized for common recreational builds

Unlocking the Full Potential: Tips from Seasoned Installers

Getting the most from your B150M starts with proper placement—ahead of props and strakes, flush-mounted for minimal turbulence. Pair it with compatible Navico sounders, and you'll notice immediate gains in target definition over older single-frequency gear. Regular hull cleaning prevents marine growth from dulling performance, and its rugged internals shrug off the rigors of repeated launches.

For coastal runs, it shines spotting pelagics near reefs; in lakes, it dissects structure like a pro. Depths to 2,500 feet vary with conditions and targets, but expect consistent results in typical sportfishing scenarios. Anglers upgrading from basic transducers often report fewer false readings and quicker hookups.
