Dual Sonar Power in a Compact Skimmer® Design – Med/High CHIRP & DownScan Imaging™
The Lowrance HDI Skimmer® Med/High Transom Mount Transducer is a compact, high-performance transducer that delivers both CHIRP sonar and DownScan Imaging™ — giving anglers the power to see fish, structure, and the bottom in extraordinary detail. Ideal for freshwater and inshore fishing, this transducer is built for reliable readings in depths up to 1,000 ft (CHIRP) and up to 300 ft (DownScan), with a short 6-foot cable perfect for kayaks, small boats, and close-proximity mounting.
Designed for compatibility with Lowrance HOOK², Elite Ti², and HDS series displays (when using the right adapter), this HDI Skimmer® provides clear sonar returns and crisp, real-time imaging from a durable, easy-to-mount housing.
