not true...
this model will fit the X, LMS, LCX, and HDX series...
I called Lowrance and they said this will work on pretty much any FF with the blue connecter...
just call Lowrance to verify for your particualr unit....
also...search the internet....
there are cheaper places to buy than Lowrance...

I emailed Lowrance about a thru hull for my Elite 5 and they said just to epoxy the stock transducer. Although, after contacting Airmar, they suggested if I could change the 83khz to 50khz in the unit I could use the same transducer. So I am wondering if I could use it if I am not using the low frequency anyway? And if the connectors are the same. Guess it is time for another email to Lowrance.

Wow, quick reply from Lowrance. The Elite can use the same Xducer with this TA-BL2UQ-t. adapter for the cable. Just have to give up the low frequency signals.

Congrats on the new ride, Josh.

Almost too clean. I'm sure you'll get it bloody soon enough, though .


As a side note, out of curiosity, if you cut a big whole in the bottom of your brand new Hobie does it effect your warranty? I have no interest in cutting a whole in the bottom of my boat, but have always wondered about this for those that do.

not sure about the warrenty issue...

Hobie is really good about standing by their stuff...
chances are, if the defect requiring warrenty was nowhere near the hole they would stand by it...

matter of fact...
the last time I had a boat warrenteed by them...
they asked me to cut out the serial # and send it too them...
now that was a big hole in the boat...
