Does anyone know if this new unit will be compatible with the lowrance ready transducer mount on the pro anglers?

The new 2019 stuff??? The guardian series looks like it should fit anything on the planet.
You can always as call Hobie and ask.

I think I know... the simple answer is yes. I have the same set up as you. Your Lowrance xducer will bolt right up to the Hobie fitting in the hull. If you use the down scan xducer, it will fit, recessed, all the way up inside the hull body and the Hobie cover plate will fit flush with the hull bottom. If you use the side scan xducer it will still fit just fine, however it will project down past the bottom of the hull a little bit. It will not be flush with the hull bottom. In this case you will need another component made by Burly Pro (? sp) that attaches to the whole assembly and creates a protective cover over the xducer.
Sounds complicated but it is really very simple and obvious when you install everything.
Good luck!

Good luck! Yes I wonder if Berely pro makes one that will fit this new transducer as this one is slightly different. maybe the total scan one will still fit this one despite the slight difference.
