NOTE: 

Not all models support Garmin ClearVü sonar 

technology and transducers.

NOTE: 

To receive Garmin ClearVü scanning sonar, you need a 

compatible fishfinder and a compatible transducer.
Garmin ClearVü high-frequency sonar provides a detailed 

picture of the fishing environment around the boat in a detailed 

representation of structures the boat is passing over.
Traditional transducers emit a conical beam. The Garmin 

ClearVü scanning sonar technology emits two narrow beams, 

similar to the shape of the beam in a copying machine. These 

beams provide a clearer, picture-like image of what is around 

the boat.
