I purchased a Garmin Echomap 93SV on Black Friday 2020. It had a defective transducer, no side view or accurate water temp. I contacted Garmin and sent the transducer back to them with an anticipated wait time of 3 weeks. The UHD 54 'ducers were backordered. After 5 weeks, they told me it would be another 6 weeks before the 54s were back in stock. They are trying to get me a 56 instead. They are supposed to be backordered until middle of May!!

Just wanted to give a heads up to those who may need warranty work or replacement parts for their sonar units. It seems that everything is out of stock. They are blaming Covid, but the increased demand is more likely the key.
If you have a special trip scheduled or a tourney coming up, I would make sure your equipment is ready- VERY long wait times for manufacturers to get parts back to you.
Just a heads up to ya'll.
