I have a Garmin 188C gps/sounder and the smartcraft ECMs. I keep Starboard tach on depth. I was getting a reading yesterday of 2.6 and 2.3 but wasn't sure where the measure is from. The bottom of the drive/prop (lowered/raised?) or the bottom of keel? or somewhere else?
I'm trying to figure out if I should add/subtract anything to account for the drives when in the trimmed fully up position. We like to go into a shallow (3ft at low tide per charts) bay called Belmont Bay. I noticed bigger boats further in but didn't like the low read.
Just trying to make sure the depth finder and I are speaking the same language.
