Depth offset
All transducers measure water depth from the transducer to the
bottom. As a result, water depth readings do not account for the
distance from the transducer to the lowest point of the boat (for
example; bottom of the keel, rudder, or skeg) in the water or from
the transducer to the water surface.
Before setting the offset, measure the distance from the transducer
to the lowest point of the boat in the water or from the transducer
to the water surface.
