Go to: www.lowrance.com

You can look up any unit they have made.

That model is not shown on the Lowrance site. It may be an X-4 or M-4, I can't tell what letter it is by the blurry picture. The model number is below the touch pad and molded into the case.

It was the top-of-the-line in it's day. I had a similar one with a few less "buttons", don't remember the model though.

its a z-4 on the case, but is this fish finder any good? i got it with a used boat i purchased and am not even sure if it works.

[Wayne P.]

It's good if it works. It will show the depth, bottom shape, stuff between the bottom and surface, and stuff on the bottom. That is pretty much what any sonar unit will do. It has several zoom features that newer lower cost units do not have. Newer units will have a higher definition display and maybe more bells and whistles.

The brand is LOWRANCE (as shown on the bottom left) and the " L° "  logo , and the style is LCG (liquid crystal graph) RECORDER as shown on the top left of the picture.

ok, thankyou wayne, ill have to plug it up and try it out and also do you have a unit that you would recommend for the front by the trolling motor that i could buy and wouldnt cost an awful amount.  100-300 is a good price range for me.

It is a Lowrance X-4 - here is the owners manual:

If it works the technology is well behind even the least expensive of today's models. Biggest bang for your buck LCR at the moment may be the Eagle 320 on clearance at Cabela's for around a hundred bucks.
