Garmin Panoptix™ PS51-TH is a forward-looking FrontVü sonar that significantly increases safety when navigating in shallow and unknown waters. The transducer is mounted through-hull and shows the bottom up to 90 meters ahead of the boat in real time, giving you near-instant feedback and time to react – before it is too late.
The narrow beam width of only 20° focuses directly in front of the boat and minimizes false readings from the sides. At the same time, LiveVü Forward allows you to see fish, divers, or your bait moving live under and in front of the boat – even when you are stationary – at a distance of up to 30 meters.
The PS51-TH is equipped with a built-in AHRS sensor, which stabilizes the image and ensures reliable data, even in waves and harsh weather conditions. Sonar data can be shared directly with other compatible plotters via the Garmin Marine Network™. The transducer shows both depth and temperature and is compatible with all Panoptix-compatible Garmin plotters.
Note: The FrontVü feature is most effective at speeds below 8 knots.
