Going to pull the boat out of the water and want to upgrade transducer at this time.
Boat cabo 40
Furuno TZT screens. 2 helm+1 tower
1100L fish-finder helm
CH270 sonar
Transducer
-has an old thru hull transducer that doesn't talk to new screens and needs replacement-can't see fishfinder on TZT screens now
-has a in hull transducer 50/200 kHz placed in 2005. It's near batteries and covered so I've actually never seen it since we bought boat. This is connected to 1100L unit.
Id like to upgrade my transducer but was hoping someone can suggest some good options. I'd like to go with chirp and prob a 2kw transducer
One issue to mention is the tower has a TZT screen too and I'd like to have transducer network to this screen so i can see from up there current transducer doesn't connect to NMEA and other in hull transducer is older and goes directly to 1100L unit
What to do?
-do I take out 1100L and in hull transducer and replace with thru hull transducer that can network to screens?
-any point in upgrading in hull transducer, and getting a 1150 unit? Would it also connect to TZT screens for tower viewing? Does this make any sense to go this route? Any reason to also have 1150 unit?
Any suggestions on how to go about this would great. Trying to get a package that makes sense and remove or replace 1100L depending on thoughts.
Thanks
