[QUOTE="LDUBS, post: 461069, member: 21536"] OK, first let me toss out a few disclaimers. First (and most important), I am not intending to be critical. Instead my curiosity is getting the better of me. Second, keep in mind about the shallowest water I'm ever in is around the boat ramp at 3 mph. And third, the guy who said "[i]there is no such thing as a dumb question"[/i] didn't hang around me for very long. Here goes: If you are going fast enough to be up on plane in 2' of water and you run across a sandbar or something, you will know it before you can react to a depth reading. So, while it is good to have a reading while up on plane, I don't see how it is going to really help when going fast in skinny water. [/QUOTE]
