Meet the Garmin GT51M-TM Transducer Transom Mount 12-Pin — a battle‑tested solution built for coastal and offshore anglers who demand CHIRP traditional sonar, CHIRP ClearVü, and CHIRP SideVü scanning sonar in one rugged package. This transom‑mounted transducer delivers clear, crisp fish arches with superb target separation and vivid images of structures and fish that pass below and to the sides of your boat, even when seas are rough.
Powerful and versatile, the GT51M‑TM combines multiple CHIRP technologies for complete visibility:
- 600 W power with mid-band CHIRP frequencies 80–160 kHz for deep, wide coverage.
- 500 W per element with 260 kHz (245–275 kHz) and 455 kHz (445–465 kHz) frequencies for high‑definition scanning forward, below, and to the sides.
- Excellent object, structure, and fish visualization beneath and to the sides of your vessel, with superior target separation in challenging conditions.
- Fast response depth and temperature data to accompany your sonar view.
- Optimized for rough sea conditions with compatibility for 0°–70° transom angles.
