What’s on the Sonar Display
Sonar Colors and Bottom View
As the boat moves, the unit charts the changes
in depthon the displayto create a profile of the
Bottom Contour. The Sonar View displays the
sonar return intensity with different colors.
Strong returns often result from rocky or hard
bottoms (compacted sediment, rocks, fallen
trees), while weaker returns often result from
soft bottoms (sand, mud), vegetation, and
small fish.
The colors used to represent high, medium, to
low intensity returns are determined by the
palette you choose in the Sonar Colors menu
option. See Sonar Menu Tab to set the Sonar
Colors.
