In 2009, Lowrance will introduce a side-viewing sonar option, with wide-angle coverage to the sides of the boat and the best underwater field of vision ever achieved -- an exclusive option for all HDS users.
Presenting a new dimension in bottom and structure viewing, Lowrance side-viewing technology delivers the same legendary total sonar performance that anglers have come to expect from Lowrance. Plus, it can be displayed in tandem with existing high-definition 2D sonar images -- powered by the built-in HDS Broadband Sounder.
As a simple, cost-efficient add-on accessory module, the new sonar technology is easily networked using Lowrance ethernet connections - allowing anglers to enjoy this Lowrance sonar advantage on all HDS displays mounted on their boat. The side-viewing sonar technology can be added at any time after the HDS display is installed on a boat, and it will work with all HDS displays, including GPS chartplotter-only models.
Designed by the leader in recreational fishfinder innovations, the new Lowrance side-viewing sonar option for HDS is great news for serious and pro anglers, as well as those involved in underwater search and recovery, marine archeology and marine ecology sciences.
Further details on Lowrance side-viewing sonar technology will be released later this year. At this time, no additional information is available. For more information on Lowrance's revolutionary HDS multi-function display systems, please contact Lowrance Sales Service at 1-800-324-0044.
