Lowrance's new Mark series of single- and dual-frequency fishfinders brings the brand's legendary sonar performance within reach of everyone from kayak enthusiasts to trailerboat anglers.
The Mark-5x and Mark-5x Pro feature a 12.7cm (5') bright-white, 480x480-pixel, SuperTwistT LED display for easy viewing in all lighting conditions, plus 16-level gray scale definition that delivers maximum target detail and separation.
While both units boast the Lowrance standard for sonar performance, clarity and target definition, the Mark-5x Pro provides the additional benefit of dual-frequency operation for greater coverage in a variety of fishing and boating conditions. With dual-frequency capability - 200kHz and 83kHz - the Mark-5x Pro provides up to 120? of sonar coverage, while reaching down to depths of over 300m.
The Mark-5x operates at 200kHz only, for depths to 240m, while providing up to 60? of fish- and structure-finding coverage. Both Mark-5x and Mark-5x Pro models are packed with the transom-mounted Skimmer? transducer with built-in temperature sensor.
To help anglers avoid missing a productive area of fish-holding structure, both models feature a unique TrackBackT function that allows the user to scroll back and review multiple pages of sonar history.
The new simplified user interface is enhanced with a backlit keypad design that allows single-thumb control, so anglers and boaters can quickly access menu features and enter Advanced User modes for expanded feature selections.
Additional features include a new mounting design with an easy-to-install, quick-release, tilt-and-swivel bracket that offers convenient removal for storage and remounting. The Mark-5x and Mark-5x Pro are also fully waterproof to IPx7 standards and come with a one-year limited warranty.
The Mark series will be available to consumers in the first quarter of 2010. RRP starts from $299.
