    nope more like 2-3 feet right and def more than 7.5 feet deep probably closer to 10.........as I see it, curious to see who else bites on this one and if they agree ??

    if it is in the water column of the side image it has to be relatively directly under the boat or within the cone angle of your 2d or di beam angle depending on how you have it setup.....

    take a look at the humminbird tutorial again......
    https://www.humminbird.com/Category/.../Side-Imaging/

    as I understand it you have to consider pythagoras theorem from trigonometry, so 14.8 depth is one side a or b and the 17 ft range line is side C do the math and you have the third side distance......a2 + b2 = c2

    Do a Restore Defaults and if that doesn't fix it, contact Humminbird Customer Service.

    that almost looks like something hanging off bottom of boat creating artifact....weeds on transducer, power pole, motor skeg something......i think the boat is still center, the artifact line is off to side....

    No, the double centerline should be directly below the boat icon, look at the other SI screen shots posted.

    Using my low-tech ruler, the boat is dead-center on the screen capture. Also... it is exactly centered between the echoes from the bottom. The lines on the image must not be the centerline. Perhaps an echo coming from the motor?

    No the lines are not close object echoes, it's a screwed up centerline. All Humminbird Side Imaging units have the double line centerline.
    Lots of examples of a correct centerline in this thread.

    fwiw, had si speed on 2. noticed i was doing 3.3mph. That cause it to be grainey?

    also, my right side is hotter but seems to clear the up when I raise motor up a bit.

    hot on the right : is transducer level relative to how the boat sits in the water, was the bottom actually harder on the right side, were you trolling in a straight line, based on the size of the water column left vs right it looks like the bottom was shallower on the right and deeper on the left, making the angle of the bottom to the right more perpendicular to the transducer therefore brighter/hotter signal....

    if you went out yesterday when it was warm but also very windy rough water can degrade the image a bit...

    Yes. Level left to right...boat floats level so not an issue. Boat floats w a slight up angle...compensated for that as well. Could have been the shallower water on right but seems a bit hotter on right about 90 percent of the time.

    latest software for unit and or restore defaults then power cycle will solve a lot of issues........if that doesn't help then probably time to send some images to humminbird customer service and see what they think....

    Is the transducer mounted on the starboard side of a jackplate?

    That is irrelevant in this case.
