2. Unstable or erratic readings. Can happen in the following cases:
• When going over shoal water, with uneven and high bottom
vege-tation.
• In heavy layers of salt or noticeable ranges of water
temperatures.
• In heavily agitated water containing particles of sand or some
other contamination.
The bottom of the transducer may be painted with anti fouling for
protection against weed growth. It is recommended the transducer
is cleaned at regular intervals depending on what kind of waters
you boat in.
Weed on the transducer can cause either no reading or unstable
readings.
In general when a boat is moored in a harbour with other boats
around, there can be disturbances from signals from other depth
transducers, chains or other mooring equipment, which will result
in wrong depth readings.
