Furuno FCV-800 8.4'' TruEcho CHIRP Fishfinder

Make the underwater world clearer

The Furuno FCV-800 TruEcho CHIRP Fishfinder combines the power of TruEcho CHIRP with a host of revolutionary identification technologies to clearly distinguish fish from other structures, such as the seabed or reefs. This helps you fish more effectively than ever before.

TruEcho CHIRP
Traditional CW (Continuous Wave) Fishfinders transmit a signal composed of a single frequency, while CHIRP Fishfinders transmit a linear frequency modulated signal - a wave with a frequency that increases over time. The FCV-800 can utilise a broadband transducer to transmit across a spectrum of frequencies, resulting in better target resolution. With Furuno's TruEcho CHIRP, you'll see greater detail and target separation for baitfish, game fish and structure.

Combine CW and TruEcho CHIRP for added capabilities
By combining CHIRP and traditional CW transducers (Single Frequency CHIRP only), you'll see crisp CHIRP echoes on the screen while the ACCU-FISH and Bottom Discrimination functions from your CW transducer work in the background, overlaying important information on your CHIRP returns. You will be able to see fish targets, fish size assessment, fish depth and bottom composition. Up to three frequencies can be saved as preset selections.

Colour Expansion
With Colour Range Expansion, the range of identifiable echoes is expanded so you can intuitively identify bottom fish from the seabed. Reefs, structure and fish near the seabed are shown in slightly separated colours, making it easy to tell structure from fish at a glance.

Wireless Connectivity
A second display can be installed to show the echoes and nav data from the FCV-800 via wireless network, so you can monitor the underwater situation from the stern or bow while fishing.

Remote Display by Apps
The FCV-800 has a built-in Wireless LAN that allows you to display fishfinder echoes on a smart phone or tablet device. The fishfinder echoes can be viewed and operated by Android or iOS/iPadOS devices, even from a distance inboard.

Furuno FCV-800 TruEcho CHIRP Fishfinder Features:
