HawkEye Electronics Marine Electronics: Intelligent Sonar Built for the Water

When it comes to marine electronics, few brands combine accessibility, innovation, and real on-water performance quite like HawkEye Electronics. Founded in 2000 and headquartered in Stuart, Florida, HawkEye has spent over two decades engineering sonar-driven products that make the underwater world visible to anglers and boaters of every experience level — from weekend kayak fishers to serious offshore enthusiasts.

Proprietary Sonar Technology at the Core

What sets HawkEye apart in the marine electronics space is their Intelligent Sonar platform, which powers their two flagship product lines: the FishTrax™ fish finders and the DepthTrax® depth sounders. The FishTrax series is engineered to operate across all seasons and virtually any fishing platform — motorboat, kayak, pier, or ice. Each FishTrax unit uses SONAR to determine fish depth, measure water temperature, and map bottom contour, all displayed on an anti-glare HD color or DOT matrix screen housed in waterproof, floatable construction. The exclusive TraxMount™ Mounting System makes these units remarkably adaptable, allowing attachment to 1/4 x 20 mounting brackets and virtually any fishing platform.

The DepthTrax line covers boaters whose primary need is precise, real-time depth awareness. Models range from handheld units like the DepthTrax 1H — a palm-sized device offering instant depth and water temperature readings — to in-dash digital sounders like the DepthTrax Edge, which features an HD color display and reads depths up to 600 feet with a transom-mount transducer.

Bluetooth & Smartphone-Integrated Fish Finding

HawkEye has also pushed into connected marine electronics with their FishPod® series. The FishPod 5X is a castable, pocket-sized Bluetooth sonar bobber that pairs with a free iOS and Android app, effectively turning any smartphone into a fully functional fish finder. The more advanced FishPod Vision mounts to the boat and delivers real-time, smartphone-integrated sonar data — including fish locations and underwater structure — with the freedom to roam the deck while staying connected to your readings.

Command Series MFDs: A Full Marine Display Solution

For boaters who want a true command center, HawkEye's Command™ Series Multi-Function Displays (MFDs) bring Android-based flexibility to rugged, waterproof, sunlight-readable marine screens. Through HawkEye Fusion™ integration, a Command display can consolidate sonar, navigation, radar, AIS, tides, weather, vessel data, and even stereo controls — all on a single purpose-built screen designed for life on the water.

Designed & Supported in the USA

HawkEye's products are designed and developed using American engineering, and 100% of their customer support is handled by U.S.-based team members. That commitment to domestic support — paired with their focus on producing accurate, reliable, and affordable sonar — has made HawkEye a trusted name among anglers who want professional-grade insight without a commercial-grade price tag.

Whether you need a simple handheld depth sounder for weekend fishing or a fully integrated Bluetooth fish finder system, HawkEye Electronics delivers purpose-built marine electronics backed by decades of sonar expertise. Explore the full HawkEye Electronics brand page to see everything they offer.
