What's on the Sonar Display

Sonar Colors and Bottom View

As the boat moves, the unit charts the changes in
depth on the display to create a profile of the
Bottom Contour. The Sonar View displays the
sonar return intensity with different colors.
Strong returns often result from rocky or hard
bottoms (compacted sediment, rocks, fallen
trees), while weaker returns often result from
soft bottoms (sand, mud), vegetation, and small
fish.
The colors used to represent high, medium, to
low intensity returns are determined by the
palette you choose in the Sonar Colors menu
option. See Sonar Menu Tab to set the Sonar
Colors.
