This fishfinder has a high-speed, micro-dynamic transducer for optimum performance that is reliable up to 70 mph, and even includes water temperature and is speed capable. The Matrix 12 also has full GPS trackplotting capability to show position, mark hotspots and easily find your way home, as well as PC-connection capability to save and manage waypoints and upgrade internal software. The GPS capability has a full-screen trackplotter and a 3D track and split-screen sonar track with an adjustable split. Easy to use, this fishfinder includes advanced upgrades that are plug-and-play compatible, from the GPS receiver, to the SmartCast wireless sonar link and PC connection accessories.

The Matrix 12 features one-touch zoom with 2x, 4x, 6x and 8x zoom levels, and TripLog with distance, elapsed time, and average speed when used with an optional speed sensor. This fishfinder has both fresh and saltwater set-up options for optimal performance in any environment, and allows for both totally automatic, or totally manual operation with upper and lower range control. The system also features a selectable large, easy-to-read digital readout with a backlight for night fishing, adjustable chart speed, and a memory that retains your settings, as well as alarms for depth, fish, and battery life. The Matrix 12 includes an adjustable chart speed, an instant image update that immediately shows results of settings changes for accurate fine tuning, and a freeze-frame that pauses the sonar scroll for detailed screen inspection. As an added convenience, this finder is ultra-compact in size, with an easy-on, easy-off one-button mounting system that allows it to go almost anywhere. The Matrix 12 is built tough with fully gasketed and waterproof construction so it even floats, and is assembled in the USA with a manufacturer's one-year warranty.
