Depth Readings You Can Trust — Clean Euro Style
The Faria Euro Black Digital Depth Sounder (FAR 12851) delivers accurate depth readings to 199 feet (61 m), displayed simultaneously in feet, meters, and fathoms. The in-hull transducer mounts inside the hull without cutting through it — keeping your boat watertight while providing reliable bottom readings on solid fibreglass hulls.
The Euro Black series features a sleek, understated black face with a black bezel — a popular choice for modern helm designs and European-style vessels where a low-profile, monochromatic instrument look is preferred over the stainless steel bezel of the Chesapeake series.
Key Features
- Depth range to 199 ft (61 m) — reads in feet, meters, and fathoms simultaneously
- In-hull transducer — mounts inside the hull, no hull penetration required
- Audio and visual shallow/deep water alarms with adjustable thresholds
- Keel offset adjustment for accurate depth-below-keel readings
- Automatic gain control for consistent signal across varying bottom conditions
- Backlit display for night visibility
- 2-1/16" gauge cutout — fits standard instrument panels
Parts Desk Insights
The Euro Black series is the best fit for modern powerboats, European-style vessels, and any helm where a clean all-black instrument cluster is the goal. The black bezel blends seamlessly into dark dash panels and pairs well with other Euro-series gauges for a cohesive, uncluttered look.
The in-hull transducer works best in solid fibreglass hulls — it transmits through the hull material without any external hardware or hull penetration. If your hull is foam-cored, aluminum, or wood, the transom-mount version is the better choice: FAR 12850 Euro Black Transom Mount.
If you prefer a stainless steel bezel or need to match an existing Chesapeake-series instrument cluster, see the Chesapeake Black options: FAR 13751 Chesapeake Black In-Hull or FAR 13851 Chesapeake White S/S In-Hull.
