ncdrew Posted November 13, 2017 Report Share Posted November 13, 2017 Can anyone ID this transducer? A clean bilge would help, that's next. It's running a Garmin 320c that was installed when boat was new. Wondering if it can still be used before I get a new machine. Thinking about going Simrad though.

smilemaker Posted November 13, 2017 Report Share Posted November 13, 2017 Transducers are a lot like a speaker. It might work but the clarity will not be the same. A new display will need the best transducer you can afford just like a speaker. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hurricane Posted November 13, 2017 Report Share Posted November 13, 2017 It could be, the factory installed Lowrance transducer, although not sure if that would work with a Garmin. Not sure what boat you have, but for some years around 2000, MBC had a shoot thru hull Lowrance transducer as factory installed equipment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ncdrew Posted November 13, 2017 Author Report Share Posted November 13, 2017 It's 2005 Pathfinder. I don't know how anyone could get down there to install it after the build. At least the bilge pump you can see! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grant Posted November 13, 2017 Report Share Posted November 13, 2017 That's the Lowrance transducer installed by the factory on those models. Came on my 2005 as well. Old generation "gray" connectors to boot. You'll need a new transducer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
