Structure ID® represents weak returns in blue and
strong returns in red.

WhiteLine® highlights the strongest sonar returns
in white, resulting in a distinctive outline. This has
the benefit of clearly defining the bottom on the
display.

Bottom Presentation

As the boat moves, the unit charts the changes in depth on the display to create a profile
of the Bottom Contour. The type of bottom can be determined from the return charted
on the display. A Hard Bottom such as compacted sediment or flat rock appears as a
thinner line across the display. A Soft Bottom such as mud or sand appears as a thicker
line across the display. Rocky Bottoms have a broken, random appearance.

The sonar returns from the bottom, structure and fish can be represented as either
WhiteLine® or Structure ID®. See Sonar Menu Tab: Bottom View for details on how
to set the bottom view.
