Amazon.com Product Description
Ideal for use on any vessel where space is at a premium, the Garmin Fishfinder 90 marine GPS is a compact, user-friendly entry level sonar that makes finding fish simpler than ever. This system features a patented transom/trolling mount, dual-beam transducer with user-selectable 14 degree or 45 degree views to give you better shallow water performance, and a wide viewing angle of 60 degrees to let you see fish--even off the sides of the boat. Designed to give you fast and clear information when you need it, the Fishfinder 90's black on white, 64 x 128 pixel display offers one of the sharpest screens for the money and the Ultrascroll option lets you enjoy a much faster refresh rate on the sonar display. This system also delivers automatic display re-scaling on range change, so you won't have to worry about vertical lines obscuring your readings. For added convenience, the power-down backup feature ensures that your settings will not be lost when the unit is turned off.

The Fishfinder 90 offers additional features, including a 2X and 4X automatic and manual zoom, 600 foot depth, and technology that shows weak and strong returns simultaneously, that make it easy and fun to find the perfect catch. And thanks to alarms for fish size, shallow water, deep water, and low battery (so your Fishfinder will never suddenly run out of power without warning), you'll have an informed advantage that will pay off in better fish stories than ever before.

What's in the Box
Fishfinder 90, transom mount transducer with integrated power cable, mounting bracket with tilt, and owner's manual.

4 out of 5 stars Replacement for Garmin 80   August 9, 2010
Ed Fritch (Greensboro, GA)
I had a Garmin 80 which worked well for 7 years on our pontoon boat. When the Garmin 80 failed this year, I ordered the Garmin 90 from Amazon. I was able to just switch the display units since the cables and transducer were the same. I did not have to rewire anything. The new unit works well although it does lose the depth sometimes as the old one did. I think depth finders do not work as well on pontoon boats. Overall it is a fine depth finder at a good price.


4 out of 5 stars Nice basic fishfinder!   August 6, 2010
David I (New Jersey)
I picked this to replace a malfunctioning depth finder in my dash of small bowrider. Size was key in my choice. I mounted this on dash, followed wiring and transducer installation instructions and all worked well with no adjustments needed.

The unit arrived in the appropriate time. However, I discovered that the unit was a return (the original purchaser's note was still in the box with the unwrapped finder). It was obvious that the unit had been returned and had been used.


4 out of 5 stars Seems to work really well   December 28, 2008

What can I say? I didn't know the first thing about fishfinders when I bought this unit to install in my Hobie Kayak. Didn't even know how it worked, but I wanted to know where the fish were.

Installation in the kayak was pretty much a breeze although I was scared stiff to drill a hole for the wiring that plugs into the display. But it turned out better than I thought. (Gives himself a pat on the back!)

As far as the transducer was concerned, I found out that you can install it inside the hull and it still works pretty well ... although you don't get a good reading on the temperature. Duh! cause it can get warm inside the hull so you get the temperature reading inside the hull instead of the water! LOL!

But as far as giving depth ranges and fish location, it does a good/great? job. I think!

But I can't truly admit that I used it to catch fish because that's debatable.

Let's just say that I certainly saw fish going by (according to the indicator/display), and it gave the depth ranges of all the fish swimming by, but catching them is another matter.

... and OH yes,it gives good audible signals as in when you're in shallow water and about to trash your rudder! Don't know what happens when you suddenly come across a sandbar ... probably comes to a sudden stop and your kayak flips over on it's side. While the sunbathers all laugh at you as you flop around on the sand like a fish out of water! Not a KODAK moment!

Keep in mind that this review is on the unit and NOT on the user's fishing prowess... OK?
