The Gaffrig digital depth gage in my 38EC is acting erratic. I'm not sure if it's defective or maybe I'm just not using it correctly. Pretty simple gage, just a SET button and up and down arrow buttons. Does anyone have an instruction sheet or manual on this gage they can email me?

The one in my 2000 is a Hummingbird with Gaffrig name on it. Bill

I contacted Gaffrig directly and they sent me the operating instructions for my depth gage along with a complete catalog of their products. (Thanks for the PM.)

For those with the older Gaffrig depth gage (model: 5001 or 5501), Gaffrig has come out with an updated model. This newer depth gage has the same size hole requirements, but larger display.

SR-71

how much is the updated one ?

According to the Gaffrig catalog and price list, their latest high performance digital depth sounder gage costs $192, and another $15 for the gage rim. Model numbers: 5003 for black dial and 5005 for the white dial. Includes alarm and transducer.

right on thanks for the info

Glad to help.

I'm checking now to see if their old (5001 style) transducer will work with their newer (5003/5005) gage. Thought being, it would be nice to be able to swap out just the gage and not have to deal with replacing the transducer. I'll post an update when I find out.

yes that would be great if it does there is no sense in ripping half the boat apart to change the transducer

Buy the Humminbird HDR610 kit (transducer and gauge) for $99 (from Overtons, Amazon, etc), change the face and rim if the word "Humminbird" on it bothers you, and pocket the other $93 .

If anyone swaps it out I need the white rim off a older gage.
