Now, you can spend another 3-5 grand to get the Garmin trolling motor that pairs w/the electronics!! It also sounds like you do not use an electric on the front of your boat, so pairing w/the troller is a moot point for you!!
Unless he has a MinnKota with Ipilot LINK or mega imaging there isn’t anything he would gain by going with a humminbird vs anything else. If he has co pilot or Ipilot with US2 built in, which is by far the most common set up, all that is required is an adapter cable to be able to use the built in transducer with a Garmin or Lowrance.
If it was me I’d try to find a Garmin 93sv with the GT54 transducer on sale at cabelas or bass pro. They go on sale often. This would allow you to use forward facing sonar in the future.
