TM258 1000W transom-mount transducer with bracket (CP3xx)

The Raymarine TM258 1000W transducer is a marine sensor designed for depth and water temperature detection. It is specifically designed to be mounted on the transom of vessels.

The Raymarine TM258 transducer has a power output of 1000 watts (1 kW). This high power enables better penetration through water for detecting targets and underwater structures at varying depths.

The Raymarine TM258 transducer is designed to provide accurate depth and water temperature data, essential for navigation and fishing.

The TM258 transducer is a transom-mount type. It is installed on the outside of the hull, on the boat’s transom, using the supplied bracket.

The Raymarine TM258 transducer is compatible with the Raymarine CP3xx series fishfinder modules, enabling seamless integration into an existing Raymarine navigation system.

A 1000W transducer provides significantly greater depth range and better ability to distinguish underwater targets compared to lower-power transducers. It is particularly suited for deep-sea fishing and detecting distant structures.

No, one of the advantages of mounting on the transom is that it does not require drilling through the hull below the waterline, simplifying installation and maintenance.

The Raymarine TM258 transducer comes with a mounting bracket, making it easier to install on the transom of your vessel.

Yes, the TM258 transducer is designed for fishing, notably thanks to its 1000W power which enables effective detection of fish and underwater structures at various depths.

Benefits of a rear-deck installation include simplified maintenance, installation without drilling the hull below the waterline, and easy access for any adjustments.

No, in addition to depth, the Raymarine TM258 transducer also measures water temperature, providing two essential data points for navigation and fishing.

No, the Raymarine TM258 transducer is specifically designed to be compatible with Raymarine fishfinder modules in the CP3xx series. Compatibility with other brands is not guaranteed and is not the intended use.

The reference number (SKU) for this depth sounder is E66084.

The TM258 transom-mounted transducer is generally well-suited to planing hulls. For displacement hulls, it can also function, but it is important to ensure optimal positioning to avoid turbulence and guarantee accurate readings at all speeds.

The official compatibility of the TM258 transducer is specified for Raymarine fishfinder modules in the CP3xx series. Using it with other Raymarine modules or brands may result in suboptimal performance or failure to function.

The Raymarine TM258 transducer is designed to operate efficiently in both freshwater and saltwater, providing reliable performance in both marine environments.

The bracket supplied with the TM258 transducer is used to securely mount the transducer on the transom of the vessel. It allows adjustable positioning to optimize the angle and placement of the transducer in the water.

Yes, with its 1000W power, the TM258 sounder effectively detects and identifies underwater structures such as wrecks, reefs, or fish schools.

The TM258 transducer is a dual-frequency transducer, typically 50/200 kHz. The 50 kHz frequency is ideal for deep-water detection while the 200 kHz frequency provides better detail resolution in shallower water.

The TM258 transducer integrates by connecting directly to a compatible fishfinder module from the Raymarine CP3xx series. This module processes the transducer signals and transmits them to a Raymarine multifunction display for data display.
