Clear Scanning Sonar Images

Garmin ClearVü scanning sonar gives you a nearly photographic, wide image of what passes below your boat. Garmin SideVü scanning sonar gives you a crisp, clear view of what lies off to each side of your boat. You clearly see structure, submerged objects and fish. Garmin CHIRP traditional sonar provides remarkable target separation. All this sonar technology is combined into 1 transducer to help you catch more fish.

GPS Fishfinder

The built-in, high-sensitivity GPS finds and maintains your position anywhere you go on the water. The GPS allows you to mark waypoints for different locations. So, if the fish are biting in 1 spot, you can mark it, and return to it on your next trip. Mark docks, boat ramps and other locations on the lake, and create routes back to them for your next trip. GPS also allows STRIKER Plus 7sv to show your speed on screen, so you can be sure you’re trolling at the right speed for the lure you’re using or in wake-controlled areas.

Built for You

The STRIKER Plus 7sv fishfinder makes fishing a breeze, and it’s built to work in any environment. The bright, sunlight-readable display gives you a clear view of what is below your boat, even on the brightest days. And the larger screen gives you a better view of what is happening below the boat. The intuitive user interface makes it simple to navigate to whatever feature you need, so you are ready for anything on the water.

Product description

The standard size Stern Pad is a mounting block for small to medium sized transducers, LED lights, live-well pumps, battery switches, fuel separators, and other devices that can be attached to a boat transom/hull. The mounting block uses an industrial grade 3M adhesive to adhere to the hull without the use of screws. The adhesive has been rigorously tested and has passed a 10 years submersion test in saltwater! The dimensions of pad are 4.5" x 3.5" x .75" with rounded corners. Note: Please use the Stern Pad Jumbo for large 3D scan transducers.

• Please see the "Stern Pad Strength Demo Video" on You-tube
• Less than 5 minute install time (18 hours cure time)
• No screwing into boat hull or using messy epoxies - Can be bottom painted
• Pad Dimensions: 4.5" x 3.5" x .75" (Please use the Stern Pad Jumbo for larger 3D scanning transducers)
• Includes: Standard Size White Stern Pad, Screwless Cable Clips, & Install kit

User questions & answers

Question:	Does the block come with adhesive for mounting
Answer:	They are pretty strong, but no I would NOT attach trim tabs due to amount of force they would put on the adhesive
Question:	Do you need a jumbo or standard for a Lowrance 3 in 1 Transducer
Answer:	Bright White
Question:	Are there any negatives to cutting the pad to make it smaller? I'd like mount zip clips on the transom and don't need near the full size pad
Answer:	I regularly run at 50 mph with no problem. The Jumbo pad is designed for large transducers and traveling at higher speed.
Question:	Does the gelcoat needed to be sanded for install
Answer:	Hello, Please contact us Seaworthy Innovations via Amazon or our website. Is it possible that the transducer hit a trailer bunk or was beached? The standard size pad (half the hold strength as the Jumbo) requires over 660lbs of force to pull off (See demo videos online). We stand behind our product and will make things right for you.
