The area covered by the transmitted sound waves is determined by the 

cone angle of the transducer and the water depth.  Using Garmin’s standard 
20° transducer, the coverage is approximately 1/3rd of the water depth. 
As shown in Example 1, the coverage area at a 30 foot depth is approxi-
mately a 10 foot diameter circle.  The scale below illustrates how coverage 
increases as depth increases.
