That is if your boat is big enough, and your wallet deep enough.
This is a game changer for tournament fishing.

What unlimited funding can buy you. How long do we figure before the technology filters down to where they'll fit on a center console?

If I remember correctly my BIL claimed that when tournament fishing you have to declare if you use it and you are put in a separate category for prize money etc.

The boat he fishes was in the process of getting this installed. Big job, big hole in the hull!

Simrad is in the game too with their SY50 Multidirectional Sonar Unit.

Captain Mark DeBlasio is reporting having a great season in OBX, but that aside they will be repowering their 42’ Northern Bay, WATER PROOF, with an 800hp Scania. That’s expected to give her a cruise speed in 23-25 knot range. Additionally, they will be adding a Simrad SY50 Omni Sonar. This will give an already very successful offshore charter operation an even bigger edge over a lot of their competitors.IMG_0924.webp
