Raymarine P79 Plastic In-Hull Transducer
The Raymarine P79 Plastic In-Hull Transducer provides a discreet and efficient way to add sonar capabilities to your vessel. Designed for shoot-thru-hull installation, it avoids drilling new holes. The transducer easily adapts to hull deadrise angles up to 22 degrees, ensuring accurate vertical beam orientation for precise depth readings. Its unique liquid-filled base, bonded to the hull, enhances sound wave transmission for superior performance compared to standard transducers. The transducer itself attaches securely with a twist-lock mechanism. This unit is compatible with select Raymarine modules, but is not suitable for wood, metal, or foam-cored hulls.

What customers say
Customers overwhelmingly praise the Raymarine P79 for its exceptional ease of installation and noninvasive design, allowing reliable depth readings without hull penetration. This makes it a favorite for fiberglass boat owners prioritizing structural integrity. The transducer consistently delivers accurate depth data across various speeds when properly mounted. Key positive feedback centers on its seamless compatibility with Raymarine electronics. Users note that peak performance requires careful attention to the mounting process and eliminating air bubbles for optimal coupling. While highly regarded for general recreational boating, some advanced users suggest a dedicated through hull may suit extreme deep water needs. Overall, the P79 is a robust, convenient solution.
