The GT8HW-IH In-Hull Transducer is specifically designed for bass boats that prefer to install the transducer inside the fiberglass hull instead of on the transom. This helps avoid any issues caused by cavitation. To mount this transducer, a flat section in the hull is required. It is particularly useful for boats traveling at high speeds and seeking accurate depth readings.
This 8-pin transducer utilizes high-wide CHIRP traditional sonar with a frequency range of 150-240 kHz. It has a power rating of 250 W. If you want to maintain depth readings at high speeds and scanning capabilities at trolling speeds, you can use it together with a GT30-TM transducer and an adapter cable.
To ensure a successful installation, it is important to carefully follow the instructions provided. Failure to do so may result in damage to your boat.
