With the transducer at the end of a 12-Ft wire, this unit can be used from larger boats, mounted inside or outside of the hull, on a pole or boathook. This is useful if you are not close enough to the water to use the SM-5. The transducer wire and fitting are waterproof, however, the main unit is not for underwater use and should not be submerged.
By changing the end caps, you can have two Depthmates in one! To convert SM-5A to SM-5, purchase the EC-5 cap (see Accessories). If you need a transducer wire longer than 12 Ft, it can be custom ordered and will take approx. 3-4 weeks. Call us to order.
