Description

The depth sounder is comprised mainly of a grey steel box. Half of the front is made of plexiglass, when looking inside you can see a paper roll that ink marks the depth of the water. There is a dial that goes from 0 to 48. The bottom has three dials and an on/off switch. The is a clasp at the top of the box which allows you to open the front and change the roll. A wire comes out the side of the box that connects the depth sounds to the piece under the boat to measure the depth of the water.
