Our take on the Garmin 010-01962-00 GT21-TM CHIRP/DownVu Xdcr

The GT21-TM is a transom-mount all-in-one transducer that pairs traditional 50/200 kHz CHIRP sonar with Garmin's ClearVü down-scanning sonar. It covers deep water with traditional sonar and shows structure and bottom detail with ClearVü, so one unit replaces two hull fittings. It suits boaters with a compatible Garmin chartplotter who fish both open water and structure. Against single-frequency transducers it adds down-scanning detail; against Garmin's higher-end GT models it gives up side-scanning and some high-frequency CHIRP performance.

Best forTransom-mount boats with a compatible Garmin chartplotterAnglers who want traditional sonar and down-scanning from one unitFreshwater and coastal fishing in moderate depthsBoaters replacing an older single-frequency transducer
Pros
  • Combines traditional CHIRP sonar and ClearVü down-scanning in one transducer
  • Traditional sonar rated to 1,500 ft and ClearVü to 1,000 ft
  • 50/200 kHz covers both shallow and deep water
  • 8-pin connector fits many Garmin echoMAP and GPSMAP units
  • Transom mount adjusts for 0 to 70 degree transom angles
Cons
  • No side-scanning, unlike Garmin's GT3x and GT5x units
  • ClearVü frequencies are fixed at 260/455 kHz
  • Transom mounting can lose bottom at speed if not placed well
  • Compatibility is limited to units with an 8-pin sonar port

What reviewers say

Owners of compatible Garmin units generally find the GT21-TM a solid step up from a basic transducer, with clear down-scanning images in shallow to mid depths. Complaints center on high-speed performance and on fitting it to the right unit.

What people mention
  • Down-scan detailPraisedOwners say ClearVü shows structure and bottom texture clearly in shallow to mid depths.
  • High-speed trackingCriticisedSeveral report losing the bottom reading once the boat is on plane.
  • Depth rangeMixedTraditional sonar holds depth well, but down-scan detail weakens in deeper water.
  • InstallationPraisedThe transom bracket and single cable make for a straightforward install.
  • CompatibilityCriticisedSome buyers find it will not connect to their chartplotter's sonar port.

Questions and answers

Which Garmin units does the GT21-TM work with?
It needs a Garmin chartplotter with an 8-pin sonar port and support for CHIRP and ClearVü, such as many echoMAP and GPSMAP models. Check your unit's transducer compatibility list before buying.
Does it do side-scanning?
No. It provides traditional CHIRP sonar and ClearVü down-scanning only. Side-scanning requires a GT3x or GT5x series transducer and a compatible unit.
How deep will it read?
Garmin rates traditional sonar to about 1,500 ft and ClearVü to about 1,000 ft. Real depth depends on water conditions, bottom type and installation.
Is it hard to mount on the transom?
No. It is a standard transom-mount bracket that adjusts for 0 to 70 degree transom angles. Mount it where it stays in clean water at speed for the best readings.
What comes in the box?
The transducer, transom mounting bracket and hardware, and cable with the 8-pin connector. A compatible Garmin display is sold separately.
