Garmin Depth Finder

[MMSnablo51]

I recently purchased a new Garmin Depth/Fish Finder/GPS. I have a 2003 Cobalt bowrunner. Can the sounder that is used in the Cobalt from the factory be hooked up to the Garmin and work or will I have to install a new dual frequency transducer.

You have to use a transducer made to work with the unit you bought.

Well, if your old xducer is a Garmin and the connector fit then they'll work.

If the transducer in your boat is 200 Khz you can use it but will need to wire to the correct plug. The transducer that are pre mounted in some new boats I think will work with almost any 200 Khz units but check with the boat manufacter to be sure.
