I considered buying the unit without the transducer and getting one of the Airmar units but I have two dilemmas that I'm dealing with.
1. The outback does not have many, if any, areas that are flat enough to support a thru hull transducer. I'm sure its possible to install one but..........see #2
2. I plan on getting rid of my outback and getting a PA so buying a $175 thru hull transducer would not make any sense, I'd have to sell the kayak with the transducer.

Talk to matt about the jimmyz plumbers putty installation, you know he swears by it!

Just get the 50/200 skimmer...putty that mofo for now.... and then take it off and bolt that sucker on to your new 2013 PA14...easy!
