    Yes it does. As I was unloading my new one from the truck the other night I noticed the blue Lowrance connector. ;)

    I use an adaptor to plug my Lowrance into my Minn kota Terrova, but @Gord since you are getting the Motorguide Xi5 with a ducer built in, you wont need an adaptor since your elite plugs straight into the motorguide blue connector like @Tony mentions. Looks like you only need to buy a power cord.

    Why not get an ice kit with power cord and use your elite 4 for ice fishing?

    Not sure I'm going to do any ice fishing not equipped for it and if I have to walk not sure my knee can handle it. May have to wait for next yr.

    Crazy good citizen!

    Kind of off topic....but anyone have a extra 2018 Ski-Doo kicking around the garage? It's for my Elite-7 that didn't come with a brand new Ski-Doo for some reason.....I've checked the retail box like 40 times and I have no idea if I lost it, or it just didn't come with! It's driving me crazy!

    It's the blue connector that plugs into the sonar of the unit. I tried it yesterday although I think I need an extension as it's not long enough as is. I'll try to get a pic up later.

    Ty @lake-fisher. I just ordered the transducer adapter for the Elite so that I can sell it with the HST-WSBL the power cord is not urgent. I’ll only need it in the spring when I want to hook up the Hook4x to the XI5.

    Use the 4x on a kayak or for the ice. Lol. Use your elite 7 ti unit for your xi5 and your hds 7 as your main unit.
