Made of stainless steel, this model stands out for its extensive compatibility with various hull materials, including fiberglass, wood, composites, aluminum, and steel. For aluminum or steel hulls, the GT15M-THF includes essential galvanic isolation components to prevent corrosion and ensure hull integrity.\n\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eDesign and Compatibility\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\n    Unlike the GT12M-THF model, which is made of brass and limited to fiberglass, wood, or composite hulls, the \u003cstrong\u003eGT15M-THF\u003c\/strong\u003e in stainless steel offers superior installation flexibility. Its 12-degree angle is specifically suited to deadrise angles ranging from 6 to 16 degrees, ensuring optimal sonar beam orientation for accurate readings. Installation requires prior verification of the deadrise angle and a meticulous process including drilling a 73 mm (2 7\/8 in) hole for fiberglass hulls or a 75 mm (3 in) hole for metal hulls, applying marine sealant, and orienting the arrow toward the keel for correct internal alignment.\n\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003ePerformance and System Integration\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\n    This transducer must be mounted in an area of clean, non-turbulent water, away from cavitation sources such as propellers or water intakes, to maximize performance. Garmin recommends professional installation and software updates to the chartplotter for optimal compatibility and efficiency. The \u003cstrong\u003eGarmin GT15M-THF\u003c\/strong\u003e is a key component for navigators seeking consistent underwater detection reliability and accuracy, seamlessly integrating into the Garmin ecosystem for an enhanced navigation experience.\n\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Garmin","offers":[{"title":"12 degrees","offer_id":55860433224020,"sku":"010-02868-01","price":570.93,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0988\/3274\/4788\/files\/main_70f910b0-4d77-4104-96bd-02786c5fd27f.jpg?v=1779193345","url":"https:\/\/skysat.fr\/en-gb\/products\/garmin-gt15m-thf-through-hull-sonar-12-degrees","provider":"Skysat","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
