successful airboat with apm 2.6

Hello Arduboat skippers

Here is a video about an rc airboat with an apm 2.6 controller and the latest version of ArduRover software. Only a minimal tweaking was necessary for a rock solid track. The speed of the boat is 3 km/h. It's purpose is mapping the bottom of an acid lake. So no metal parts in the water and only air propulsion. The boat is covered with 5 layers of epoxy paint. In a previous life it was a bait boat.

It still has to be equipped with a sonar. Do you guys have any ideas about what sonar would be suitable?

Thanks
