R99
• The top performer in Airmar’s professional line
of fishfinder transducers for vessels 30’ and up
• Streamlined shape with included fairing provides
excellent performance at speeds even over 30 knots
• Exposed temperature sensor provides fast,
accurate responses
• Interfaces to Furuno FCV1100, FCV1200 and BBFF3
• Includes a unique stuffing tube that seals the hull
to form a water tight conduit for the cable

Performance that
redefines fishfinding
The new R99 is a fish’s worst enemy. Why? The R99
is
so precise
, fish are no longer camouflaged by their
surroundings. Down deep near the bottom– you’ll
detect them. Away from the bottom– fish don’t have
a fighting chance. With fifteen 50kHz elements in its
arsenal, the R99 is the
find
in
fishfinder
.
The New Benchmark for
High-Powered Performance!
The new R99 is a 2kW powerhouse. Packed with
an array of fifteen 50kHz elements and an 88mm
200kHz narrow beam element, the performance is
4 times that of a B260 transducer. The R99’s streamlined
shape maintains noise free accurate readings at speeds
over 30 knots. Add a high precision temperature
sensor, and the R99 has rewritten the record book.

why the R99 is clearly the best choice for the
serious sport fisherman!

Dimensions
R99 vs. B260:
• Beam widths are narrower, concentrating
energy for better target detection and
bottom detail.
• Figure of merit is 6 dB higher at 50 kHz
and 200kHz, as compared to the B260.
This is equivalent to 4 times the sensitivity
at each frequency.
• The Q at both 50 kHz and 200 kHz is
significantly reduced, which means even
much lower ringing and even better
discrimination between closely spaced fish
and between fish and bottom.
