I had a Lowrance fishfinder that went awol, put in a Northstar plotter
and just cut the plug off the old transducer and figured out the wiring
to the plotter. Worked fine, most seem to be made by Airmar and are
generally compatible, you can usually find the pin-outs online.

My Coastal Navigator DDS 200 depth gauge which is no longer in business seems
to have retired itself. I'm thinking the instrument itself has gone bad, not
the transducer. We just had the boat out of the water in April for fresh
bottom paint, so I really don't want to pull her out again to replace the
transducer. I'm hoping the existing transducer will work with a new depth
gauge instrument such as a Signet SL172 depth gauge. I talked to Signet and
they believe it should work, as most transducers operate on 200 kHz.
Just wondering if anyone has had any experience with replacing their depth
gauge using the existing transducer, what kind did you use, and did it work ok?
I'm thinking about the Signet Gauge to match the existing knot log, wind
speed, and apparent wind indicator, which are all Signet. Any suggestions?
Thanks,
