No kidding, they were actually shocked as well when they looked the part up.
 
Apparently their parts dept marks their parts up over 100%! You can get it below for $487....

 
Im almost positive its an airmar unit my boat came with a plug to install to prevent freeze damage and its labeled airmar

pull it out and see if there are any model numbers on it. Yamaha marks it up then the dealer marks it up to get to the grand total of 850.00

link to airmar trnsducers 30 day return policy please keep us posted

Agree 100%, and then when you figure out what brand/model it is, please be sure to post up your findings here so someone else can learn from your research!
 
Anyone change one themselves? Is there a thread I’m missing to walk me through it?
