WESMAR Introduces Soundome Extension Kit

Woodinville, WA – 9 August 2011 – WESMAR has announced the availability of a new Soundome Extension Kit to enhance the underwater vision for users of their lead screw hoists. These easy-to-install kits will extend the soundome 12 inches deeper; thereby improving the acoustic acuity and giving a better picture of what is below and around the boat. The kits are easily installed and available from the company and its dealers.

WESMAR says the best way to obtain peak performance from sonar and other acoustic instruments is to extend them deeper into the water where they are least affected by aft, port and starboard trim of the vessel, aerated water, hull shape, water intakes, keel coolers, machinery noise and hull vibrations, which can dramatically impair acoustic signals.

Known for its successful development of long-stroke hoists, WESMAR has for many years sold through-hull sonar systems with hydraulic hoist systems that extend the soundome well below the vessel. As the world leader in sonar manufacturing they have pioneered and engineered the most advanced hoist systems available. Today these systems are operating worldwide on fishing, research, offshore, and military vessels.
