Lowrance HDI Skimmer MED/HIGH 455/800kHz Transducer – Transom Mount

Overview

The Lowrance HDI Skimmer MED/HIGH 455/800kHz transducer is built to adapt to changing water conditions. It pairs MED and HIGH frequency modes in a single housing, delivering detailed sonar imagery for fish, structures, and bottom detail with crisp clarity. The setup uses a 9-pin xSonic connector in a Lowrance branded blue housing to connect with compatible displays.

Designed for transom mounting, this transducer features two elements for dual element imaging. The built in temperature sensor provides water temperature data to help you interpret readings during your session. The transom mount design simplifies installation on many boats and dash setups, making it a practical upgrade for midsize boats and anglers who need flexibility on the water.

What makes it versatile

With MED at 455 kHz and HIGH at 800 kHz, you gain options for scanning larger areas with reliable depth readings as well as high resolution imaging near structure and weed lines. The two-element design enhances target separation, helping you distinguish small targets from the surrounding bottom texture.
