Sonar Colors and Bottom View
As the boat moves, the unit charts the changes
in depth on the display to 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
softbottoms (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.
