RE: Depth guage
You don't have a depth gauge built into your speedo display? Push the "M" button several times and you can get to it. If you have a limited or a team you should have it. -

Most people with a depth finder in their Nautique probably have a Faria or Humminbird. The Humminbird has been known to have problems (do a search on here and you will find several threads on it) of freezing up and just displaying 1.7. We have the Humminbird in our boat (from the factory) and have never had issues, but you're probably better off going with the Faria.

I am in the process of putting one in my 216. I bought a Faria (I think the Chesapeake series) which has a white face and chrome bezel to match my other gauges. Not perfect but pretty close. I am planning to mount it near my ballast gauges on the throttle panel.
I should be able to mount the transducer directly to the hull, i.e. no drilling. There is a test that the instructions outline to make sure you will get proper readings. I havent gotten to that point yet.2003 Air 216Comment

Got a hummingbird. The dealer mounted it down where the tank controls normally go, but I don't have tanks (211). Works fine, every once in a great while gets a bad reading due to choppy conditions or stuff (but reading 0.1 or something ridiculous so I know it's off). Overall fine with it but would like it on the dash instead...
Also, mine doesn't have temp readouts...would be nice. But I imagine that has an external transducer, and I didn't have a hole put in my boat!Comment
