If it is a 2019 or later it has the guardian system instead which integrates easily with transducers from numerous manufacturers.

Thanks for that. Now I need to do some more thinking. The kayak is a 2014 that I bought used. I don't go out as much as I would like to so don't plan on buying a newer one yet. I was about to get the Garmin today but now ill sit back and see what other options are out there.
