Lawrence Hook4, Hook5, Elite 5TI, Elite 7TI, or HDS series. There are some great rebates and get the West marine extended warranty. It really depends on the size of your wallet.

Do you know if the transducer mount that comes in the Outback can be modified to house transducers other than Lowrance and Hummingbird?

If you have the Lowrance transducer ready Hobie then all the transducers should fit except the Total Scan transducer. Hobie does have an adapter plate, but all that does is mount it on the outside and then it is hanging below the level of the rest of the kayak keel and it's exposed to rocks or boat ramps (I personally don't like that at all).
