Honda Electronic HE-773B Multi Scan Echo Sounder

Description

The Honda HE-773B Multi Scan Echo Sounder represents a significant upgrade in horizontal scanning technology. While traditional echo sounders only show what is directly beneath the boat, the HE-773B functions like an underwater radar. Its motorized transducer can be tilted and rotated to provide a full 360-degree horizontal view or a specialized vertical scan. This capability is indispensable for purse seining and trawling, as it allows the captain to monitor the exact direction, distance, and depth of a fish school in real-time.
