WORK FINE. JUST MAKE SURE TO USE HIGH SPEED FAIRING BLOCKS FROM AIRMAR.

These are not thru hull transducer's. They are in hull. No fairing block needed.

Well, I grabbed a Furuno 582L online and I am considering the Airmar M260 Shoot thru, can anyone tell me how much this puppy is going to cost me? Is it a good 'ducer????

I have the 582 and a B-260. It works very well, but my complaint is the narrow beam angle. I run mine in 50hz all the time to get a wider beam angle than 200hz.

Airmar is aware of this and there is a new X-ducer being tested now. God knows when it will hit the market.

It is the exact same X-ducer as the B-260/M-260 except it is 24deg beam on both 50hz & 200hz.

I can't even find the imfo on Airmars site. I found it on THT.
