Garmin ECHOMAP™ Plus 7Xcv Boat Kit

The Garmin ECHOMAP™ Plus 7Xcv Boat Kit is a complete marine electronics solution designed for anglers and boat operators who demand reliable sonar and navigation capabilities in professional and recreational settings. This kit transforms a portable 7-inch ECHOMAP Plus cv combo into a permanently mounted, fully functional fishfinding and navigation system suitable for freshwater and saltwater vessels. Whether you're transitioning from ice fishing electronics to year-round boating or upgrading an existing marine system, this kit provides the integration hardware and transducer technology needed for dependable performance on the water.

At the core of this kit is the GT22HW-TM transducer, which delivers high-definition sonar imaging through advanced CHIRP (Compressed High Intensity Radiated Pulse) traditional and ClearVü scanning sonar modes. CHIRP technology transmits a continuous frequency sweep rather than a single pulse, providing superior target separation and bottom detail at depth—critical for locating structure and identifying fish in variable water conditions. The tilt/swivel mount with quick-release cradle allows both permanent installation and tool-free removal, enabling the 7-inch display to transition between vessels or storage without compromising mounting integrity. The transducer's high-wide coverage pattern maximizes the cone of detection, while ClearVü scanning provides high-resolution side-imaging clarity essential for evaluating shallow-water cover and suspended targets.

Law enforcement, search-and-rescue teams, and commercial fishing operations benefit from the kit's straightforward installation and proven reliability under operational stress. The quick-release cradle design means the unit can be secured during transit and removed within seconds when not in use, addressing security and portability concerns common in professional marine environments. Compatible with existing ECHOMAP Plus cv systems, this kit eliminates the need for separate purchases of mounting hardware or transducers, reducing setup time and cost. Weighting 4.25 lbs with compact dimensions of 9 x 9 x 20 inches, the complete kit integrates efficiently into helm stations and console spaces on vessels ranging from center consoles to aluminum open boats.
