Transducer for humminbird 958C

Alright I'm sort of posting off "Bear's" post from the other day. I just purchase a new 958c & I'm reading a lot of people saying you should go buy a better transducer. So what thru hull AIRMAR should I be looking at?

B60 is what some of us have. I never installed the factory transducer so I can't compare the two.

IMHO you maybe reading too much "bad" into that post. I bought two 788ci and ran them this year. When the transducer worked it was a great unit. Then it started getting weaker and I sent it back in and they replaced it no charge. That said the 788ci made in 2010 had a bad batch of transducers that were never called back just sold that way and let the buyer but up with it and replace it. I think your unit has the Quad Beam with it and you should be fine...................my need some fine tuning/learning how to set the setting up. YankeeTroller help me out getting mine set don't waste your time with HB IT guys they are ******* .......

IF you wanted to go with a thru-hull, and your a trailerable boat, go with the Airmar B 60. Thru-Hulls are much nicer ducers in that you can see a whole lot more when your cruising. However, run what they gave you if you want a transom mount ducer. No need to spend the extra coin!
