Sonar Quiz #50

Navigating shallow water.

Good discussion guys ...

Rickie

Humminbirds also have a depth alarm to warn when you are getting into too shallow of water when boating. I would think other brand sonars have this also.:twocents

Depth Alarm Settings:
Off, 1 to 100 feet, or 0.5 to 30 meters [International Models only]; Default = Off
Depth Alarm sounds when the depth becomes equal to or less than the menu setting.

Super how did you set it on your garmin? I read the manual and went to settings then my vessel and the option is not there. I have the Striker Plus 9sv. Thanks

Sorry, I am running a 93sv chirp. Perhaps there are different paths and options between the two since yours is a higher end unit than mine. If someone else doesn't chime in then I would be on the horn to CS, you will get help there quickly.

Apologies sds888, I was thinking of the 7600 series when I replied IDK why. I would think that these had the same options with the same path. CS if you don't hear from someone else.

I would have answered the same as TeeDee. I checked the online manual for the Striker Plus and it says the same thing.
