Superior Sonar Insights That Reveal What's Below

Dive deeper into fish-finding with 1kW CHIRP sonar, delivering exceptional bottom tracking and target separation. Dual transducer ports mean you can connect multiple setups without hassle, supporting Active Imaging for photo-like structure views and ForwardScan for forward-looking bottom sweeps.

• Exceptional clarity on bait schools and wrecks.
• Handles deep-water scenarios with proven 3,000+ ft depths (tested with high-end transducers).

Whether you're trolling offshore or finesse fishing inshore, this sonar setup cuts through noise for reliable arches and separation that keep you ahead of the bite.

SolarMAX IPS: Visibility That Conquers Any Light

Battling glare? Not anymore. SolarMAX IPS technology ensures high-definition views under blazing sun, with ultra-wide angles visible through polarized lenses. Optically bonded glass resists fogging, standing up to summer heat and spray.

Hybrid control shines here too: multi-touch for calm days, full keypad for gloved hands in choppy conditions—precision without compromise.
