Ohhhh the horror!

Actually those screen shots are beautiful. Is there any chance you have a setting that's shutting it off at depth?

If not did you use the same transducer setup for both units?

The fact that both units had the exact same rather bizarre issue suggests that it's not the units themselves but either default setting they came with or a issue with the transducer install. Default setting seems unlikely because there's not a bunch of people with the same problem.

That leaves the transducer... I'd pull the transducer out of it's mount hook it to the unit direct then drop it over the side down away from the yak and see if it's still's a problem.
