Hobie New Release date?

Hmm. New outback possibly soon? I guess I should wait on replacing mine. What do you think the longest it could be is? They release one every year right?

Is there REALLY a question about that?

It should fit. 

I don't think the dragonfly transducer will fit in the new Lowrance mount plate due to its length.  You could still do a custom mount for it though.

I think Raymarine was trying to compensate for something with their "bold" transducer size

Is it new or is it the same as in the PA/2014 revo?  If so, it will fit. 

However 50/200 lowrance ducers DON'T fit, right?  and also HDI versions don't fit very well either right?

I have not tried the HDI transducer in the 2014 Hobie/Lowrance mount.

Are specs available for the new AI?  I wonder what all the increases in size do to it's performance, handling, transportability, ...

The one item I was looking for is there...the transducer mount.  I'll be checking this out as soon as it's GA.

Yes I'm ready to upgrade also and ready to sell my 2013 AI but it looks like it's going to be heavier the way it looks on the pics ..

Man... I just got my '09!  Oh well... the real choice will be:

1) Upgrade to the newest model

OR

2) Upgrade to one of YOUR "old" AI's with the newer rudder design...
