You could also use this sounder when diving to measure horizontal distances such as from a wreck site to the shore - or to the rock which it crashed on! Depthmate is waterproof to a depth of 50m. The transducer in the end of the unit must touch the water or a solid surface which is in the water eg air-free hull, inflateable bottom or black ice. Sonar will not read through air. Readings are accurate from 0.6m to 79m, measured in metres or feet to the nearest tenth. A reading holds for 10 seconds or updates each time the switch is pushed. Backlit digital display.
