[QUOTE="bigwave, post: 249097, member: 7537"] More than likely your transducer is in the wrong spot. You are probably getting distortion from the cavitation from either your bow wake or motor. If you find the owners manual it should show you the location and depth that the transducer mount. If you still have problems you could always step it up to a thru-hull ducer away from the back of the boat. They cost more but if properly installed you can read the most depths at full speed. My buddies boat will read the bottom in 2500 fsw at 25kts, and I have another friend that has the bad *** simrad that will read any depth at 60 mph. That unit cost about 10k though. [/QUOTE]
