Airmar triducer

[Billyo]

Hi all, I'm looking for a recommendation for an online chandler/marine electronics shop (uk based) that has a fast response time and answers emails! Background is I'm in the pacific with virtually no internet signal and need to identify the triducer i have to order a replacement. I have a friend coming out in ten days who cold bring it with him.

Any recommendations would be gratefully recieved!

Contact John Grandshaw at JG Tech, he's a very switched-on guy and runs a good business. He's also a forum member here. See https://www.jgtech.com/ for contact details.

Edit: This page on identifying transducers might help too - https://jgtech.com/instruments/instrument-transducers

PRS Comms in Harwich would be my choice.

However, if you post some details here, perhaps you'd get an answer. What's the triducer connected to ? What sort of plug (a pic might be handy if you can) ?

Awesome, thank you both. Details of the current transducer are: it's conmected to a furuno fl50 by a grey five pin cable (the connector to the fl50 is round), the through hull is copper with an outide diameter of 2 inches and sits vertically 4 inches high inside the hull, I'm guessing the hull is around an inch thick at that point). Any help?

Yes, but I imagine the bronze housing is OK, so the OP could save money by buying a plastic through-hull version (the actual transducer will be the same size). The dealer will advise.
