I am replacing a Lowrance depth finder with an in-hull transducer. Will this finder work with that transducer?

If it has the same connections it may work ok, but this unit comes with it's own transducer so you may want to use that instead.

Have no idea... Why not use the one that comes with the Hummingbird? I placed that transducer inside the hull and it works beautifully. Before mounting it permanently with a slow-cure epoxy, test the location first by mounting it with petroleum jelly. If you get good readings with pj, then you have a good location. The pj sticks fairly well, enabling me to test the location even when the boat was on a plane.

probably not, since hummingbird bought the company they have only made the chips for hummingbird devises only, this chip does not work on lowrance sonar/gps devises used on boats. you will need to find a chip that is before the company was bought, or navionics chips that will work with lowrance devises.

don`t know for sure but I got a 20 ft boat and had some left so I had slack in it,when I put the unit in dash1` hope that helps ,also on side scan ,what ever your depth make side scan double ,if it`s20 make side scan 40 hope this helped you good fishing

It is a depth sounder or fishfinder however you'll need to mount a transducer on your boat

I'm not sure I used the transducer that came with the unit to put on my trolling motor and it worked great

i had spoke to garmin in the past and they told me that there transducers are all universal to all there products, i had purchased a 541-s on my previous boat i had switch garmins and was able to use the same transducer, i hope this helps.

It is the 455 kHz used for the Lowrance Structure Scan only. You need the 50/200 or 83/200 for the sonar image.

Yes it does. I have had Humminbird Fishfinders on all three of the boats I have owned, and been very satisfied with the quality and the price of them.Addition to my comment: On my sailboats I installed the transducer inside the boat - in the bilge. I got a 4" PVC piping connector fitting and glued it to the inside skin of the fiberglass hull with bathtub caulk, filled the fitting with water, then sat the transducer down in it. Worked great, but check the water level occasionally.

mine doesn't have a transducer - is this a part that comes with the motor or for a depth finder that you have in addition to the motor? I wired my depth finder to the opposite end of the boat from the bow mount motor.

I use this unit on a kayak solely for depth and position. If you need a fish finder I would recommend a model that is geared more toward fish finding that has a GPS.

It comes with 83/200 transducer.. Im using it depths reaching more than 60 fts and still working nicely.. But im not really depending on the fish finder for fishing.

Yes, using a Lowrance Elite-5 fishfinder/chart plotter... It uses the NMEA 1830 link /connection successfully

This fish finder was designed for kayaks, canoes or a float tube, not a boat such as a bayliner. You would be better off with an economical finder that can be attached to the boat with a transom mount tranducer.

The transom mount Garmin Airmar P66 dual frequency (200/50khz) transducer is what I am using with the 546S. It is excellent for both bottom contour and fish finding. The pn number is P/N 010-10272-00.

No, through hull requires a special transducer, this machine does not support the type of transducer needed.

The transducer that comes with the unit should be okay to us on a trolling motor. You will need a mount for a trolling motor, though.

I would check Garmans web sight to make sure. Otherwise if there is a Bass Pro shop, Cabelas near you go there and ask them if it will work. Other than that it does work real good, used it this summer and what the gps was showing was the same as fish locator for water depth.
