Keel Offset

Keel offset is a depth correction representing the
vertical distance between the depth transducer and
the location from which the depth is to be measured.

Enter a positive keel offset value when the
transducer is located below the water surface but
the total depth is required.

Enter a negative keel offset value when the
depth below the deepest part of the boat is
required (such as the keel, the rudder or the
propeller) and the transducer is located closer to
the water surface.
