Navico StructureScan 3D® Thru-Hull Transducer w/Medium/High CHIRP

Unlock Crystal-Clear Underwater Views with StructureScan 3D and CHIRP Technology

Imagine gliding over hidden reefs, spotting schools of fish darting around submerged wrecks, or tracking the perfect bottom contour for your next big catch—all from a stunning 3D perspective. This thru-hull transducer merges cutting-edge StructureScan 3D imaging with versatile Medium/High CHIRP sonar, delivering a game-changing tool for serious anglers. Whether you're navigating deep offshore waters or shallow coastal bays, it provides unparalleled detail to help you locate fish-holding structures and individual targets with precision.

Unlike basic 2D sonar, the 3D imaging creates a lifelike, interactive map of the underwater world. You can pan, tilt, and rotate views in real-time on your compatible display, making it easier to interpret complex terrain. Pair it with CHIRP for razor-sharp target separation: Medium frequencies excel at penetrating deeper waters for solid bottom tracking, while High CHIRP shines in shallows, revealing fine details like baitfish clouds or suspended gamefish.

Key Features That Set It Apart

• StructureScan 3D Imaging: Generates high-resolution, picture-like 3D scans up to 180 meters on each side of your boat, perfect for identifying structure relative to your position.
• Dual CHIRP Capabilities: Medium/High frequencies offer broad coverage—deep bottom definition plus crisp shallow-water performance—all in one robust unit.
• Thru-Hull Design: Crafted from durable stainless steel, it mounts flush or with a fairing block for hull deadrises up to 5 degrees, ensuring a clean install without drag.
• Versatile Connectivity: Features a 9-pin connector with XID for direct MFD integration, plus dual 12-pin for StructureScan 3D modules, plus a temperature sensor for real-time water data.
• Impressive Specs: Rated for depths up to 600 feet and 500 watts of power, it handles demanding conditions with reliable performance.

These elements combine to give you a multi-tool transducer that replaces multiple units, saving space and simplifying your setup while maximizing your fishing edge.

Seamless Integration and Real-World Performance

Designed for compatibility with popular marine electronics, this transducer connects effortlessly to multifunction displays or dedicated sounder modules. The built-in XID technology auto-detects settings, so you're up and scanning with minimal configuration. On the water, expect exceptional side-scan range and down-scan clarity that reveals wrecks, drop-offs, and weed lines in vivid detail.

For offshore adventures, rely on Medium CHIRP to lock onto the bottom through thermoclines and track structure at speed. In bays or rivers, switch focus to High CHIRP for hyper-detailed views of the water column, spotting crappie hugging timber or walleye cruising ledges. Anglers report game-changing results: easier jigging spots, quicker structure mapping, and fewer missed opportunities.

"It's like having eyes under the boat—3D views make reading the bottom intuitive, and CHIRP nails the fish targets every time."

Installation is straightforward for thru-hull setups: drill, seal, and fair it to your hull's angle. Its rugged build withstands constant water exposure, delivering years of dependable service.

Pro Tips for Maximizing Your Transducer's Potential

To get the most from this powerhouse:

1. Adjust gain and sensitivity based on water conditions—start low in murk to cut clutter.
2. Use 3D rotation to align views with your trolling path for intuitive navigation.
3. Combine with forward-facing sonar if available for a complete 360-degree picture.
4. Calibrate in known depths to fine-tune accuracy before big trips.
5. Monitor water temp readings to correlate with fish activity patterns.

These tweaks can turn good scans into extraordinary insights, helping you outfish the competition.
