Airmar Retractable Transducers

Airmar Retractable Low Profile Thru Hull Transducers are designed for reliable sonar performance with the convenience of a removable insert and streamlined hull installation. Ideal for recreational and commercial vessels, these transducers allow the sensing element to be removed from inside the boat for maintenance or replacement without hauling the vessel from the water.

Their low profile design helps minimise drag while delivering accurate depth, temperature, and sonar data for cruising, fishing, sailing, and offshore applications.
