Conguring My Boat
From the Home screen, touch Congure > My Boat.
Keel Offset—offset the surface reading for the depth of a keel,
making it possible to measure depth from the bottom of the keel
instead of from the transducer location. Enter a positive number to
offset for a keel. Enter a negative number to compensate for a large
vessel that may draw several feet of water.
To adjust the Keel Offset:
1. From the Home screen, touch Congure > My Boat > Keel
Offset.
2. Use the on-screen keyboard to specify the offset.
• If you are measuring down to the keel (transducer installed
at the water line), enter a (+) positive number.
• If you are measuring up to the water line (transducer
installed on the keel), enter a (-) negative number.
3. Touch Done to accept the number.
