The SS270W’s extra wide coverage delivered to a dual-frequency, split-screen sounder gives fishermen a wider view of what is going on under the boat. The SS270W gives you four times the beamwidth at 200 kHz than other 1 kW, high-performance transducers. Since the beams are the same at both frequencies, a split-screen fishfinder display will clearly show the same water column and bottom coverage. Fish may also appear as arches. More fish will be marked while cruising, trolling, drifting, or at anchor.
- Tuna/Marlin Fishermen—Detect bait and gamefish in the upper-water column that would go unseen with a traditional narrow-beam transducer.
- Downrigger Fishermen—Track your downrigger balls and lures on the screen at both frequencies. This allows you to adjust the downrigger settings to maximize the lure or bait presentation at a desired depth.
- Jig Fishermen—Seeing your jigs descend on the echosounder screen while bottom fishing can help avoid bottom hang-ups when fishing in heavy currents. Seeing a tuna attack your jigs on the echosounder display lets you reel up other loose lines before tangles can occur.
The SS270W’s custom-fit high-performance fairing will give crystal-clear imaging at speeds up to 30 knots (34 MPH). And since the SS270W fits into the popular B260 fairing pocket, it’s easy to upgrade existing installations. Possibilities expand with the SS270W Transducer
