[C320-list] Depth sounder

[Graeme Clark]

Bill

Both my 320’s had/have separate depth transducer from the speed/temp transducer. The speed transducer is a paddle wheel and when in place projects below the full surface, obviously whereas the depth transducer is flush. It has to be in the water to work!

Easy to see if you pull out the drawer in the forward cabin you will see both the-hulls, unless as Jeff says its all now combined in one?

I believe that for Ray marine the transducer is not proprietary, ie there are other makes that will work with the Raymarine instrument.
