If you enter the beam angle of your transducer and the water depth, it
will calculate the "footprint," or diameter of beam, your transducer is

Didn't they teach math and geometry when you were in grade school?


They were teaching geometry at the time when Harry's father was
boating across the Atlantic in a 20 boat. Harry had to be in New York

was unable to attend class.
