The price is high. Is it worth the investment?
The B265LH is engineered for serious offshore fishing, offering superior depth and detail in challenging conditions. Its robust construction and advanced CHIRP capabilities justify the investment for dedicated anglers prioritizing performance and reliability.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is the beam angle of the Raymarine B265LH transducer?
The beam angle varies depending on the CHIRP frequency. For Low CHIRP, the beam angle is typically wider, providing broader coverage. For High CHIRP, the beam angle is narrower, offering more focused detail.
What is the maximum depth rating for the Raymarine B265LH transducer?
With its 1kW power output, the Raymarine B265LH is capable of reaching significant depths, typically well over 3,000 feet (900 meters) in clear water conditions, making it ideal for offshore and deep-water fishing.
Is the Raymarine B265LH transducer compatible with all Raymarine MFDs?
While designed for Raymarine MFDs, compatibility is specific. It requires an MFD that supports 1kW CHIRP sonar and the correct connection type. Refer to your MFD's specifications for confirmation.
What is the frequency range of the Raymarine B265LH transducer?
The Raymarine B265LH operates on Low and High CHIRP frequencies. The specific frequency bands are optimized for deep water penetration and detailed bottom structure identification.
Does the Raymarine B265LH transducer include a temperature sensor?
Yes, the Raymarine B265LH transducer features an integrated temperature sensor that provides real-time water temperature readings directly to your compatible Raymarine Multifunction Display (MFD).
