Product Description
From the Manufacturer
The Humminbird 4064801 HDR 610 In-Dash Digital Depth Gauge gives you instant, reliable depth readings even at high speeds, and can alert you to both deep and shallow water. The gauges tracks up to 600 feet in depth at speeds up to 70 miles per hour. It's easy to install into existing 2-1/8-inch gauge opening, and features rubber buttons for greater reliability. The backlight makes readings on the 1.25-inch (diagonal) LCD display easily visible at night, and the readings can be presented in feet, meters or fathoms. The kit includes white and black color face plates and bezels.
Product Description
The HDR 610 In-Dash Digital Depth Gauge offers reliable depth readings and customizable colors to complement the gauges already in your boat dash. Each HDR 610 comes with a black and whit face plate and trim ring¿you decide what looks best! Great for all types of boating, the HDR 610 reliably tracks the bottom, even at high speeds, with the additional benefit of both deep and shallow depth alarms. The rubber buttons and backlit display make it easy to use, day or night. In addition, the gauge is easy to install in any existing 2 1/8" gauge opening, it's easily wired to the ignition switch so it automatically powers on, and the transducer can be easily mounted by glueing in the puck for a in-hull application.

thru-hull works well,
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Humminbird 4064801 HDR 610P In-Dash Digital Depth Gauge (Electronics)
Good unit, and it fits in the standard gauge cluster holes. Since I have a GPS, I have replaced the boat's mechanical oil-filled magnetic compass with this unit.
I have a 2002 Stingray 190LX and learned that the factory has made a provision to help owners install a thru-hull transducer for a depth finder like the Humminbird. During manufacture, Stingray workers actually sand down an area beneath the engine, in the correct area to avoid turbulence beneath the transom. This meant that I could forgo the need to load the bilge up with water, put a sandbag on the puck, and do all the location testing that the Humminbird manual prescribes. One shortcoming in the Humminbird manual is the lack of disclosure as to how long the supplied "slow cure" epoxy is supposed to take. I did the work at mid-week, so there was plenty of time before the weekend for it to set. It would be helpful to have a time/temperature chart. You can select between a black or white set of dial faces and outer trim rings. I forgot to peel off the protective cellophane on the digit dial when I stuck the black face on there. Luckily, I was able to peel it off, remove the cellophane, and re-lay the dial face no problem. Regarding the outer ring, it is possible to snap it into place without the tangs correctly aligned with the housing. I did so, and it won't come off on the risk of breaking the ring. It's level enough that you can't tell. Another lesser problem in the book is where it describes the alert device as a "buzzer," when in actuality it is a ceramic "Sonalert" type of noisemaker that's quite loud, and just what's needed when you're in an open boat and up on plane. Think of the noise you hear when the fries are "up" at the fast food place. I wish the backlight were switchable to conserve battery power. I initially ran this depth finder on a non-switched (always on) DC circuit; the same one that supplies the VHF Marine FM radio. In daylight, the backlight is not needed, and there are times when I'm drifting, engine off, that I'd like to keep it powered up. During installation, before setting down the epoxy, I recommend placing the puck in the bilge and routing the wiring along the boat's harness, along the gunwale, and up into the fascia (dashboard). Doing this before you set the unit in the epoxy enables you to rotate and twist the puck, to help work out any twists and kinks in the cable as you feed it from the back to the front of the boat. The manual could be more specific as to the symptoms of interference, and the conditions under which it takes place. Is the cable vulnerable to interference from the VHF marine FM radio that Humminbird mentions in the manual, or does the depth finder potentially generate interference in the radio ? I twice have noticed erroneous readings when the "shallow alarm" was set to 3 feet. The water was more like 15-20 feet deep, and I was not transmitting on the radio when this happened. I also was at a constant forward speed and not crossing any known debris nor turbulence. It's possible this is a case of interference against the depth finder, but it's not coming from inside the boat as far as I can tell or try to re-create.

HDR610P In-Hull Installation on Seadoo Islandia,

This review is from: Humminbird 4064801 HDR 610P In-Dash Digital Depth Gauge (Electronics)
Works very well. Digital indicator installs with minimal effort and problems on the right side of the instrument panel. The internally mounted puck transceiver works perfectly when mounted with epoxy to the inner surface of the bottom of the engine compartment hull just aft of the sump/bilge pump. Simply follow the instructions provided by humminbird, and all will work fine. Transceiver sender cable routes easily from the engine compartment through the starborad (right side) cavity (will take taping and pushing with a 3' slender pole) up to the opening in the console cavity for invisible installation other than the indicator in the console. The installation indicates depth identical to the transceiver at water level external to the boat. It doesn't find fish, but it does indicate depth very well.

This review is from: Humminbird 4064801 HDR 610P In-Dash Digital Depth Gauge (Electronics)
Installed the unit in my sailboat; it was easy to install and works great. I initially thought it was defective because at time it would read erratic. After a couple of weeks I realized it only read erratic when the motor was running and was fine when under sail power only.
I believe the problem is due to the built-in charging unit of the outboard; I'll know shortly.
