Garmin's See-Thru technology enables the sonar to hear weak and strong signals at the same time. A graphic whiteline presents a clear image of bottom hardness and structure, and the sounder detects fish even when they are suspended inside structure and thermoclines. Depth Control Gain automatically adjusts sensitivity according to depth.

Display options include split-screen zoom, depth, temperature, speed through water, auto ranging, 2x and 4x auto and manual zoom, three fish symbol sizes, and an adjustment bar. A backlit keypad allows you to navigate the screen with cursor keys and enter data.

The Fishfinder 240 comes in a fully gasketed, high-impact plastic alloy case rated to be waterproof submerged for 30 minutes at a depth of 3.3 feet. This product comes with a protective front cover, mounting kit, wiring adapter cable, and a one-year warranty.

4.0 out of 5 stars Garmin 240, May 11, 2001
By A Customer
This review is from: Garmin Fishfinder 240 4.6-Inch Waterproof Fishfinder (Electronics)
The Garmin 240 is an excellent value. It is your best bet for under 300.00. It is extremely easy to install, only a one cable hook up. The High Resolution display is top of the line. The display of the thermocline is great when it works. The transducer has given me problems. But overall it is an awesome value.

3.0 out of 5 stars Good value., June 8, 2004
By A Customer
This review is from: Garmin Fishfinder 240 4.6-Inch Waterproof Fishfinder (Electronics)
For the price you pay this is a decent fishfinder. However, even with the updated software the performance of the 240 blue has been disappointing. As long as you do not plan to fish any water deeper than 500 feet, it works well. After 500 feet you lose the reading and you then must circle back into shallower water to regain the signal. Unfortunately, you generally have to go all the way back to about 300 feet of water to actually do this. In shallow water it works well. Just keep in mind that the actual max depth is 500, not 1500, feet when buying.
