I have a bran new unit I tried it out on the water and found out that when I am going 3mp my depth is correct but when I am going fast my depth is way off. Any one have any suggestions?:banghead

More than likely, your xducer is coming out of the water as your boat rises up on plane...
2 choices (if this is the case)...
*Lower xducer more down into the water...
*Add an additional Dual Beam xducer with the AS SIDB Y cable and get this cheaper xducer farther down into the water ..(or install the Dual Beam as a shoot thru hull if your boat is glass)...

I agree that your transducer may be coming out of the water as you get on plane.
my boat is not a bass boat its a crappie boat with a 40h merc, never had that problem
with my old depth finder I put the transducer at the same location.
Thank guys for your information
Post some pix of your transom xducer installation...
Both from the rear and each side with the camera at xducer level...
