HDS-7 Gen3 Fishfinder/Chartplotter with TotalScan™ Transducer and Insight USA Charts

Top-of-the-line sonar technologies provide the best possible view of the environment beneath your boat.

High Definition System (HDS) Gen3 combines a bright, multi-touch display and enhanced processor with high-tech fishfinder capabilities. It works with CHIRP Sonar, Broadband Sounder™, StructureScan^® HD, DownScan Imaging™ and Trackback™ view. It comes with advanced navigation, an internal GPS and dual microSD-card slots. It's designed with an uncomplicated user interface, touch-plus-keypad operation and built-in wireless connectivity for your convenience.

FishReveal™ Smart Target Viewing: A massive leap forward in fish-finding technology, FishReveal makes it easier to see fish on DownScan Imaging™. Unlike traditional CHIRP views that provide strong fish targets, but lack refined structure detail, or DownScan Imaging that provides photo-like images of the bottom and structure details but shows fish targets as tiny dots -- FishReveal Smart Target Viewing blends the best data from both, eliminating the need for split-screen viewing and interpretation.

C-MAP Navigation Palette: C-MAP charts just got a major upgrade in readability that is most apparent near shore, where colors used for land, docks, anchorage areas, water, and channels are nicely differentiated and water contour lines are distinct. The new palette makes it easier to tell where the boat is in relation to a channel, navaid, ledges and drop-offs, or a point of land. The color scheme is also much easier on the eye.

Automatic Routing: Get faster and easier navigation with automatic route planning. This feature simplifies route creation by automatically plotting the shortest and safest course based on the boat's draft, beam  and  height; creating a route around a landmass, shoals and other fixed navigational hazards. Autorouting requires a C-MAP MAX-N+, Navionics+ or Navionics® Platinum chart.

Both CHIRP and Scanning Sonar: It’s got both CHIRP and Scanning Sonar built in, so you get the clearest view of fish, structure and the underwater environment. CHIRP provides more definition and better target separation than traditional sonar, and Scanning Sonar provides a wide angle of detailed imagery from around your boat so your views aren't limited to down. Enhanced sonar sensitivity, excellent target separation and superior noise rejection make seeing baitfish and gamefish targets easier.

TotalScan™ Transducer: TotalScan™ matches proven Broadband Sounder and CHIRP Sonar with StructureScan^® HD and DownScan ImagingTM technology — making it possible to target fish and search for fish-holding structure with the same transducer. The TotalScan™ transducer features multiple mounting options and is fully compatible with displays featuring integrated support for StructureScan^® HD.
