    Default UR perfect speed for SI


    Mine ended up being as close to 3 mph as possible. My whole world was fine tuned at this speed.

    I'm in a kayak but 1-2 MPH gives me clear shots. Glad it does because about 2.5 MPH is as fast as I can paddle....LOL.

    3-4 and make sure your sonar settings match the speed by setting the scan speed to match your actual speed.

    I just adjust my chart speed to match my speed. I get a pretty good image going .5-1 MPH with my chart speed on 1. In contrast, I get good images going 5-7 MPH with chart speed on 7.
