Key Components That Deliver Real-World Performance

At the heart of this kit is the GT24UHD-TM transducer, a game-changer for spotting fish and structure. It combines traditional CHIRP sonar for deep-water precision with ClearVü scanning sonar that paints razor-sharp images of what's directly below your boat.

• GT24UHD-TM Transducer: High-wide CHIRP for broad coverage and ClearVü for detailed downward scans—perfect for bass boats, kayaks, or center consoles.
• Adapter Cable: Bridges older transducers seamlessly to your UHD series.
• Bail Mount & Cradle: Tilt/swivel design for optimal viewing angles, with quick-release for safe storage.
• Power Cable: Reliable connection to keep your unit powered through long days on the water.

Why Boaters Choose This Kit for Everyday Wins

It's not just about the parts—it's about the freedom they provide. No more squinting at fuzzy returns or wrestling with mounts that slip in rough seas. Users report finding structure and fish schools faster, turning average outings into trophy hauls. The black finish blends discreetly with most vessels, and the easy-install design means you're fishing sooner, not tinkering longer. Whether you're chasing walleye in shallow bays or mapping deep drop-offs, this kit elevates your ECHOMAP's capabilities to pro-level marine performance.

Simple Installation Steps for Quick Setup

1. Mount the bail and quick-release cradle to your preferred dash or rail position using the included hardware—adjust tilt for glare-free views.
2. Secure the GT24UHD-TM transducer to your transom with marine-grade adhesive and screws (not included, but standard hull fittings work great).
3. Route the transducer cable through the boat, connect the 4-to-8-pin adapter, and plug into your ECHOMAP UHD 6Xcv.
4. Attach the power cable to your battery or fuse panel—test sonar in shallow water to calibrate.
5. Hit the water: Auto-tuning sonar ensures peak performance from the first cast.

Pro tip: Position the transducer parallel to the waterline, away from strakes or prop wash, for the cleanest readings. Most setups take under an hour, even for DIYers.

Perfect Fit for Your Fleet

Designed specifically for ECHOMAP UHD 62/63/64/65 and compatible Plus series models, this kit ensures your chartplotter thrives in marine environments. It's versatile for aluminum fishing boats, fiberglass cruisers, or even inflatable pontoons—wherever your adventures lead.

Caring for Your Kit to Last Seasons

Rinse with fresh water after saltwater trips, store the cradle indoors during off-seasons, and inspect cables for wear. This simple routine keeps sonar crisp and mounts solid, maximizing your investment.
