    It should, when you get it do not take transducer out of packaging. Call Humminbird and tell them you want to do an exchange for trolling motor transducer. They should give you a RA number so you can send in and get trolling motor ducer.

    Do not purchase any of the helix models that end with CHO in their model name. Those helix models come without a transducer that are used with the new Min Kota trolling motors with the transducer built into them. Just a FYI?

    I was told you can’t buy with troller ducer. Can only trade in.

    You can buy a separate transducer for installing on trolling motor if you want to keep the one that comes with helix. The one that comes with it is transom mount transducer.

    If possible to save time when you order your new unit call HB and order the Tm transducer same day let them know your going to be trading it out and they will send all the correct papers with the new ducer then you will have all your stuff at the same time and then ship the transom ducer back and they will apply credit to your credit card your out no money and all equipment arrives same day.

    I just did this. Great program by HB. It does cost $30.
