It thus prevents any water from entering the boat's hull, contributing to maritime safety.

No, as its name indicates ('Plug Only'), this product is only the replacement plug. The ForwardScan transducer itself is not included and must be purchased separately if needed.

This product is CE-certified, attesting to its compliance with European standards for safety, health, and environmental protection.
