Humminbird P79 Fishfinder Transducer P79-HB

The P79 is an in-hull 600W fishfinder transducer. The active element mounts in a small round tank (included) which is epoxied to the hull and filled with non-toxic antifreeze. This transducer is for use with solid fiberglass hulls only. Cored hulls will impede the signal. The P79 cannot measure water temperature.

The P79 is shipped as a generic 'Mix and Match' transducer plus a brand-specific adapter cable. If you change fishfinder brands in the future, you can continue to use the transducer with a new adapter cable. (Note -2, -BB, -BL, -FARIA, -FISO models are made with fixed cables.)

This '-HB' version of the transducer is for Humminbird sounders and fishfinders that use the #9 Humminbird transducer connector, including the 800, 900 and 1100 series (except for the 967 3D).
