The Humminbird PiranhaMax 230 uses dual 20-degree and 60-degree sonar beams that operates on the 200 kHz and 83 kHz frequencies to a depth of 600 feet, as well as a SmartCast 90-degree single-beam wireless sonar with an operating range of 100 feet to a depth of 120 feet. Able to cover a wider area for fish, and give more precise bottom detail, this fish finder reliably provides a target separation of only 2.5 inches. This unit utilizes a high-speed, microdynamic transducer that provides optimum performance even at top speeds, and includes water temperature via the transducer.
The PiranhaMax 230 has a high-definition, 4-inch FSTN LCD display with 160 x 132 lines of resolution in 4-level grayscale that delivers a clearly better image of the bottom, fish and structure. The 230 features an Easy One-Touch control that accesses its full set of advanced functions such as Selective FishID+ with target depth, the three-level backlight for night fishing, and the ability to see fish below as solid symbols and around the boat as hollow symbols. This unit also features user-controlled zoom, sensitivity, depth range, bottom view, chart speed controls and alarms for fish and depth. All the information you want can be viewed at a glance on the 230's big, easy-to-read digital readouts, which can be enhanced via such features as the high-contrast bottom black viewing option.
Made to go anywhere, the PiranhaMax 230 Portable includes a feature memory that retains your settings between uses, a rugged carrying case, and a no-skid bottom that combines with its ultra-compact size to allow it to mount virtually anywhere. The 230 comes with a XHS 9 20 T Suction Cup transducer that mounts on most aluminum, wood and fiberglass hulls with smooth surface, and a built-in transducer cable wrap with a cover. The Humminbird PiranhaMax 230 measures 4.375 x 6.125 x 3.25 inches (W x H x D), is built tough with fully gasketed and waterproof construction, and is backed by a manufacturer's one-year warranty.
